Yes... 5.0 in all of its mullet-laden glory... until I can get
openmanage in it so I can use idracadm to reset the openmanage
password through ssh, so I can then wipe and put newer esxi.

That is ok. This is a test machine and I have no problems going
to 6.5 on it.
I also did try an older version of openmanage [yes I tend to write
down what I used],
OpenManage Server Administrator vSphere Installation Bundle (VIB) for ESXi 5.0
OM-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-6.5.0-542907.VIB-ESX50i_A02.zip
http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/drivers/driversdetails?driverId=N3R0H
https://downloads.dell.com/FOLDER00197341M/1/OM-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-6.5.0-542907.VIB-ESX50i_A02.zip
becase all I want is to run idracadm. And, it also did not work for
the same reason.
