Thanks, when i said we tried the 'dell custom iso images' that's what i meant - we used the dell image named: Dell ESXi-5.1-799733 (A00) (VMware ESXi 5.1.0 Update 3) That actually didnt work for either server, but the stock vmware image 5.1.0-1-standard (build 2323236) worked for the first server just fine. Neither image worked for the second server, both upgraded the second server but neither found the nic in the dell iso image, the nic-bnx2 driver is version 2.2.1l.v50.1-1OEM.500.0.0. 472560 in the vmware stock image, the bnx2 driver is 2.0.15g.v50.11-7vmw.510.1. (which works on the first server, not the second) the only difference i can find is the sub id listed on the hardware.
How do I use WinPE* 2.1 with VMware* virtual machines? Or download the latest e1000(Intel) driver. VMWare ESXi 4.x. The e1000 NIC can be added directly.

Found two interesting links, but the instructions just don't line up for me and i dont know enough about linux/vmware/vi to patch my way around the roadblocks. What i'm hoping for is a linux expert that understands what's in these two links and can help me through it the hardware i need to get detected should have the netbnx2 driver, and the hardware id / vendor id / subhardware id / subvendor id that aren't found are: 14e4:1639 14e4:1639 (yes it's repeated into the sub hw/ven spots) alternatively, a guided path thru editing the eprom of the nic itself to make its sub's appear as: 14e4:1639 1028:0236.would work also. Can you screenshot the network interface section for me. We use Dell servers, R710, R720 mainly with many Broadcom Corporation Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 1000Base-T just checking randomly some servers. An interesting snip in the system log, regarding the bnx2 driver saying 'firmware not running, aborting' this is after i physically updated the firmware for this broadcom, from 0 to 19, using the dell update disk 2015-06-11T19:17:18.866Z cpu6:8700)module heap: using memType 0 2015-06-11T19:17:18.866Z cpu6:8700)module heap vmklnxcnicregister: creation succeeded.

If you just alter the mapping file, with you ID, does it work? Following along with you and the link above, i have the map file.
Removed the bnx2 vib from the running system, rebooted went to install the custom vib again, says success just needs a reboot rebooted. I see the driver, but now the broadcom doesn't show up at all in vmkchdev - will try installing off the ISO install process # vmkchdev -l grep vmnic 00:04:00.0 8086:10d3 8086:a01f vmkernel vmnic4 # esxcli software vib list grep -i bnx net-bnx2x 2.711.10.v50.6-1OEM.500.0. 0.472560 QLogic VMwareCertified 2015-06-11 scsi-bnx2fc 1.711.10.v50.3-1OEM.500.0.

Hmm actually before i install with the iso, they do show up, just not as vmnic's but as vmkernel # vmkchdev -l grep 14e4 00:01:00.0 14e4:1639 14e4:1639 vmkernel 00:01:00.1 14e4:1639 14e4:1639 vmkernel 00:02:00.0 14e4:1639 14e4:1639 vmkernel 00:02:00.1 14e4:1639 14e4:1639 vmkernel anything i can do there?
