Hi there,

When I try to install OPNsense 20.7 on VMware ESXi 6.7, I get following error message when I do either the Guided or the Manual install:

QuoteThe installer could not find any disks suitable for installation (IDE or SCSI) attached to this computer. If you wish to install OPNsense on an unorthodox storage device, you will have to exit to a LiveCD command prompt and install it manually, using the file /README as a guide.

The installation medium I'm using is OPNsense-20.7-OpenSSL-dvd-amd64.iso.
The VMware guest was created with default settings for Other -> "FreeBSD 12 or later versions (64-bit)".

Any idea what's going on/wrong?

FYI, changing from the default VMware Paravirtualization storage to LGI Logic Parallel did the trick.
