Indeed, that is what I have on a recent uptodate ESX installation.
00:10.0 "0100" "1000" "0030" -r01 "15ad" "1976"
On an older machine:
00:10.0 "0100" "1000" "0030" -r01 "" ""
I don't care much about that one, but excluding 15ad:1976 from installing
mpt-status would be great. It is a real pain if you install you lot of machines
in a vmware environment - or you have to work around it... (or use the fully
automatic fun, but that is not always possible...).
