Hi Guys,
I was try to run ESXi VM over FreeNAS 11 for test purposes.
The VM starts and hangs on the moment when loads everything and try start the install process.
I have tried to dun any other linux install and finish with the same issue, or even worst - VM do not even start proper.
Do some of you have such problem and how you solve it?

Since I don't rely on this - there no hard feelings but as is mentioned FreeNAS to be just another possible virtualization platform is sad to have such results.
Does this is important for FreeNAS? Hell YES!!
Modern hardware is much more powerful and often provide multi-core CPU and lots of RAM which to be spent in vein if FreeNAS is installed on it.
If will not be able to do virtualization then will be changed by its rivals and soon will be forgotten.

Just running some plugin app is not enough anymore for FreeNAS.
So I want to rise the concern around this keystone feature.
FreeNAS has to have robust virtualization (and at least very basic firewall abilities).
