new server with vmware

Hi
I just got another Dell 1950 server which has embedded vmware esxi 4.1
does cloudmin work with this too or need I remove vmware?

thanks

According to the "about" page, Cloudmin supports Xen, Zones, OpenVZ, vservers, and Amazon EC2. VMWare uses a proprietary modified Linux kernel and will surely not be compatible with Cloudmin.

Which wouldn't even make sense, since ESXi has its own management software called VSphere. :)

But, why exactly would you want to kill ESXi and replace it with a Cloudmin based system? I'm running VMWare myself and it is definitely worth a try, especially if it's already installed.
