I got a crash here because I did these steps in VirtualBox. The info of the crash is "Crash Guru Meditation -2304(VERR_REM_TOO_MANY_TRAPS)". It seems VB can't support virtualization guest OS, I also got failure when trying to install ESXi 3.5. The experience will continue when I got standalone machine and I'm not sure current result is correct. So pls don't follow me or you will be on your own risk.
to be continued ...
