Last night I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.4 (desktop) on ESXi 6.5, and within a minute or two it freezes. I have 2GB of memory assigned to it, and 25GB of HDD.
It was a fresh download from ubuntu, all packages etc are upgraded, ...
I found a video on youtube where someone was having the same issue and for him it was caused by the low memory configuration of the video card (initially 4MB). He increased it to 8. I tried, 8, 16, 32 and 64 but in all configs I got a crash within the first few minutes.
The crash usually happens when I use any app on the desktop (including changing settings), and has happened when I SSH'd into the machine to install crashplan (which installs an icon on the desktop).
Does anyone have it running? What config?
The same VMWARE ESXi server runs several instances of ubuntu (headless) and has never had an issue. It also runs windows 10 with no issuesThe same server runs several instances of ubuntu (headless) and has never had an issue and has run a VM of os x in the past as well.
HELP!!!
UPDATE: THIS IS A KNOWN BUG THAT HAS BEEN FIXED IN 6.5.0 update 1.
I fixed by uploading to synology iSCSI and running
esxcli software vib install -d /vmfs/volumes/SynologyiSCSI/updates/update-from-esxi6.5-6.5_update01.zip
