Bare Metall Install on VSphere 6.0

Hello Fedora Community,

I want to install Fedora CoreOS on our VSphere. Unfortunately we still use VSphere 6.0 in our company. OVA cannot be used. Therefore, as workaround, I decided to do a bare metal installation of Fedora CoreOS via PXE. I created the Ignitionfiles with the Openshift-Installer. Unfortunately the installation always hangs in the following line: [ 12.472990] [drm] Initialized vmwgfx 2.18.0 20200114 for 0000:00:0f.0 on minor 0

My question is: does bare metal installation on VSphere also require a more modern VSphere version?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hello,

does no one know if installing CoreOS with baremetall is a workaround to use CoreOS on old VSphere 6.0 cluster?
