Not able to boot from install ISO

[Zanthius]

Hi all,

I'm trying to install the new mail gateway 7.2-1 on my ESX box (sorry) but I can't seem to get it to boot from the ISO.

It's connected to the new VM, but just wont. Any ideas?

what exactly happens? do you see the boot menu? does the installer load?

I see the boot menu, but it looks like it tries to boot from the CD, but then skips past to PXE boot. Eventually it drops to the boot menu and when I manually select CD rom, it just bounces straight back to the menu again.

you can also install pmg on top of a debian (e.g. pmg 7.x on debian 11 bullseye) see https://pmg.proxmox.com/pmg-docs/pmg-admin-guide.html#pmg_install_on_debian
