Hey there,

I want to install talos on a vm on a ESXi 8 server but looks like the documentation is kinda broken. https://docs.siderolabs.com/talos/v1.14/platform-specific-installations/virtualized-platforms/vmware

This one here:

curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/siderolabs/docs/main/static/talos/v1.14/vmware/cp.patch.yaml 

The download link forcp.patch.yamlit's not working. I tried with the cp.patch.yaml from the version 1.13 but doesn't seams to work with the version 1.14.

I have a setup where my vmware server network has a DHCP but I want to set the IPs of the instances manually ( out of the range ). I'm using guestinfo.talos.config variable for the configuration and it's working half way. The configurations is being read. I can see in the console but the settings are not working for some unknown reason. I can in the console the talos trying to download some images and failing. I believe my yaml is missing something. I haven't found a way to maybe read the DHCP config ( on DHCP – manually , not using the vmware config variable, the system install and works )

Any examples that can guide me in the right direction will be very much appreciated. I don't want to install an old version. I'm trying on the 1.14.

I'm using those bellow, plus the controlpanel configuration.

apiVersion: v1alpha1 kind: LinkConfig name: eth0 addresses: - address: 192.168.1.222/24 routes: - gateway: 192.168.1.1 --- apiVersion: v1alpha1 kind: HostnameConfig hostname: talos-cp auto: stable --- apiVersion: v1alpha1 kind: ResolverConfig hostDNS: enabled: true # Enable host DNS caching resolver. forwardKubeDNSToHost: true # Use the host DNS resolver as upstream for Kubernetes CoreDNS pods. nameservers: - address: 192.168.1.1 --- apiVersion: v1alpha1 kind: TimeSyncConfig enabled: false # Enable time synchronization service. bootTimeout: 2m ntp: servers: - 192.168.1.1 ---
