掛載實體硬碟
用SSH登入ESXi host,

1. cd /vmfs/volumes
2. ls -l, 寫下想把新的HDD掛載的datastore, 此處的例子為SATA1-2TB.
3. cd /dev/disks
4. ls -l, 找到NTFS硬碟並copy下來(開頭為t10.ATA, 結尾通常為該硬碟的序號. copy沒有冒號(:)的那一行.
5. 打入下列指令掛載NTFS硬碟

vmkfstools -z /vmfs/devices/disks/t10.ATA_____ST2000DM0012D1CH164__________________________________W2419CSM /vmfs/volumes/SATA1-2TB/ST2KDM001_BAD.vmdk

6. 離開SSH, 登入vSphere Client.對想掛實體硬碟的虛擬機(VM)按右鍵edit settings --> add --> Hard Disk --> 選"Use an existing virtual disk." --> Browse
    --> 選SATA1-2TB, 找到並選取之前建立的vmdk檔. --> SCSI (1:0)

2015/01/01:
目前 ESXi 版本為 5.1.0 Build 1065491, VMware Unlocker for OS X 版本為 1.2.0
測試成功之guest OS 有: Windows 7 x64 SP1, Windows XP Pro SP3, Windows 2000 server SP4
                                   Ubuntu server 12.04, OSX 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9

準備工作:

1. CPU必須有VT-x VT-d功能, onboard LAN很有可能抓不到.加一片Supermicro AOC-SG-i2 dual port Gigabit就ok了.

2. 到VMware網站下載 ESXi 5.1 update1 ISO及相關檔案(須註冊一個免費帳號,公司填personal也可以).

3. 若不想燒CD, 可用UNetbootin把ISO放進USB隨身碟或SD卡(512MB以上,會清除現有資料).

1.開啟顯示隱藏文件的功能.在Terminal執行下面命令:

defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles YES && killall Finder

2.從App Store 下載OS X Mavericks系統安裝檔,下載完成在應用程序文件夾中找到名稱為"Install OS X 10.9"的app.現在在它上面點右鍵,然後選擇"顯示套件內容".

3. 進入Contents/SharedSupport,看到一個名為InstallESD.dmg 的文件.然後double click它掛載成一個disk.

4. 在剛剛掛載的disk目錄下,看到一個叫做BaseSystem.dmg 的文件.

轉換dmg成為iso:
先將dmg檔copy到Mac的桌面,在terminal鍵入以下commands:

cd Desktop

hdiutil convert ./InstallESD.dmg -format UDTO -o InstallESD

mv InstallESD.cdr InstallESD.iso

eBAY上search想買的東西時,一大堆accessories跟著跑出來. 過濾方法如下:

在打入的關鍵字後面加上減號跟著想去除掉的字. 例如:

Linksys E4200 -mod -antenna -adapter -kit -charger -power

DD-WRT:

1. Download DD-WRT K2.6 firmware (dd-wrt.v24-30880_NEWD-2_K2.6_mini-e4200.bin, dd-wrt.v24-30880_NEWD-2_K2.6_mega-nv60k.bin) from below link:
