SP3 hardware not supported by RHEL 6

[phey_05]

I bought SP3 to replace my home & work computer, as my job requires me to have RHEL 6 via VMware i need to install it to SP3 too.

And this is what I found: please see attached file.


Anyone tried installing RHEL on SP3? Any inputs?

Something is wrong with VMWare. You are installing that within a VM. That installation does not detect your SP3.

Both VMware on my SP3 and Dell computer has excalty the same configuration but i stll have this issue.

I actually just reinstalled VMware on both machine to test it.

As far as I know that message should be referring to your VM no to your SP3.

I even updated my VM to the latest version, still same error message

Can you test run another virtual operating system? Don't you need to turn on Virtualization in the BIOS of these machines before being able to do that?

Are you installing VMware Workstation or the actual ESX Product? Neither product is compatible with a Connected Standby Machine.

I have windows XP working fine.
Yes, Im installing VMware Workstation

Your company pays big bucks to Red Hat for support, I would highly recommend you escalate it to them....I still believe that RHEL is reading the S0iX enabled SoC and Trusted Boot during the install....

Simple solution I found. Copy the RHEL6 installation on the VMware of my Dell computer to SP3 VMware... works like a charm... problem solved...
