Deploy ESXi 7 on USB

Hello.

I have server with one HDD disk and one USB connected to it. When I deploy ESXi on HDD everything is fine. But when I try to deploy it on USB it loads Squashfs and trying to download ESXi image but stucking on 95%. After a long time I got 100% but installation didn’t finish.

What could it be? Maybe some one faced with the same behavior? Or maybe someone have any ideas?

Ubuntu deploys on this USB without problems.

hey, @kiruka4, it’s been a while, but i’m checking to see if you ever resolved this?
