Go for 9.2-RELEASE amd64 or expect all kinds of problems. >=20 "FreeBSD" is "not officially supported" by VMWare. Trust me. We threw $60,000 at them and they still wouldn't acknowledge bugs. I couldn't even find an engineer that knew what FreeBSD was! Plus you have to consider that we don't even know what version of ESXi he's working with in the first place. According to their OS support matrix, FreeBSD 9.2 is only "supported" on ESXi 5.5. http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php?deviceCategory=3Ds= oftware&partner=3D109&testConfigurations=3D16&page=3D1&display_interval=3D1= 0&sortColumn=3DPartner&sortOrder=3DAsc&testConfig=3D16
