Fedcora Core 6 - ESXi 5.1 OS not FOund
I just installed Fedora Core 6 on a ESXi 5.1 host.The install went fine and I selected the Lsi Logic Parallels SCSI adapter when I built the VM originally. Once the install completed, I converted it to a template then deployed a VM from it.
When the VM powers on, it states OS not Found and I do not have a NIC attached and already checked the VM's BIOS boot order

Normally templates are made from Windows OS machines, not Linux.
However, the machine booted before, conversion to template, but does not boot now?
if you convert the master template back to VM, does it boot?

Thank you all for your help patience and support. As always I have learned something new through the process
Do you have that setting set?
which would explain the loss of the OS on shutdown..
