ESXi 6.5 Free version

Hey There Community,

  I'm looking to connect with folks that are savvy with ESXi Server 6.5 the Free Version. I need to create a custom iso so i can install a home lab. The installation fails because no drivers are available for the integrated nic, I found the file I need  but no docs on how to install the file during the installation. So I found out you can create custom iso files but I can't find the zip bundle for the free version.  Can some give me a link to download the zip bundle or explain how to create a custom iso from a running ESXi installation.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Please take a look at https://www.v-front.de/p/esxi-customizer-ps.html which can do what you want. The web site also contains a vib depot with drivers for unsupported hardware.
