Hello everyone!

Take care for virtual USB interface under ESXi 5.0.0, multiple console errors regarding USB during OS load, removing the interface from the VM settings solved the problem.
If you have such a virtualization platform (maybe just this version), be aware, and better remove USB before applying the upgrade.

Thanks!

PS Franco, should a bug report be opened on github?

5.0 has been end of life for a while. Which usb device are you using? I've installed from ISO.

It's the only ver. that runs on G6 (mostly) without problems (upper, and get into a plethora of **%#$**).  :D

None: web interface upgrade.

But after the upgrade, during boot time, didn't like the virtual USB interface (not storage, since non existent in the USB port) any more, the same virtual USB interface that 17.1.X and 17.7.X had no problems with. Saying again, I have removed the virtual USB interface/ component from virtual appliance settings, and not an USB storage device of any kind.

Thanks, and cheers!

I have the same error.
Running ESXI 6.5.
May I know what did you mean by virtual USB interface?
-Edit-
Found it, it is the USB controller.
I removed it and then it loaded fine.
