maybe dumb question but how do I installopnsense to ESXi

[franco01]

it seems to not install onto esxi disk but just go though the live cd configuration. How do I install onto Esxi

[bartjsmit]

Log in as 'installer' password 'opnsense'

I would be careful, as it would be easy to configure ESXi management on the WAN interface (wrong side). 

A dedicated machine would be a better way to go.  Specifically, you would not be open to any host (ESXi) vulnerabilities, and the physical computer would require less resources (as there would not be any hypervisor).  I know ESXi does not consume many resources, but it adds another level of complexity.
