Very slow booting from ESXi 5 DVD

Hi,

 

I just wanted to gage the time it takes for others to boot a server from an ESXi 5 DVD. So far the 3 tests I've done its taken approximately 1 hour 5 minutes just to boot from the DVD, not to do the actually install, it takes 1 hour 5 minutes to get to the initial install menu.

 

The host I'm using is a rackmount HP ProLiant DL580 G5 (4 socket - 6 cores per socket each) with 64GB of memory. If tried 2 different G5's. Using the iso: VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.0.0-469512.x86_64.iso

 

Can anyone else comment how long it takes for your servers to boot from DVD....

 

Thanks!
