Hi all together,
I just recieved my new NUC8i5BEH today and tried to install the newest ESXi Version available (ESXi 6.7U1. I also get the well known message "Shutting down firmware services... Using simple offset UEFI RTS mapping policy." like a lot of users had while trying to install ESXi on the 8i7xxx models. I know that intel delivered a brand new bios version for the 8i7xxx models and after that esxi installation and boot up worked for these models.
The NUC has the newest Bios version installed, BECFL357.86A.0048.2018.0919.2013.
Is there any workaround for this issuse?
What I tried so far:
- Installed ESXi to an USB Stick by using an other computer and then tried to boot from it with the nuc - same error
- Updated NUC Bios from Version 0041 to 0048
- different usb sticks
same issue different model:
Cheers and thank you in advance!
