Quick note to say that unetbootin can take the "VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.5.0-1331820.x86_64.iso" image file and write directly to a USB key/memory stick. That memory stick, in turn, is bootable and can be used to install the ESXi hypervisor on a compatible system.
I used it to install from a USB memory stick to a different USB memory stick, which frees up the local SSD and HDD for use with the VSAN beta.
This wasn't always the case with previous versions of ESXi. Glad to see it's straight-forward now. Time to go play!
