I intend to install a sevrer VM on my USB HDD. I have downloaded VMWare ESXi but when I begin the installation (CD booting) on my laptop which has a USB HDD attached, it does not give me the option of installing VMWare on my USB HDD (only the laptop HDD appears).
I also need to know whether the existing data on my HDD will be erased (or HDD formatted) by VMWare ESXi before installation.
Would appreciate if someone would guide me with the appropriate product for my need.
My need: I want to install a virutal SAP server on my USB HDD in entireity so that I can "carry my installation" with me and "plug and play" to any windows desktop using a player.
Thanks
