How to run Citrix XenServer 5.5 on VMware vSphere

1 - Create a Virtual Machine with custom settings. 
2 - Select the new Virtual Machine version 7 hardware. 
3 - Select Red Hat Enterprise Linux v5 (64-bit). 
4 - 1 vCPU and 1GB of RAM will suffice. 
5 - I used the LSI Logic Parallel SCSI Controller. 
6 - Create a disk based between 20 – 30GB (less has caused issues, see comments below) 
7 - Make it thin provisioned if you want,  why wouldn’t you? 
8 - Connect the ISO image to the VM and start it. 
9 - Follow the prompts on screen to complete the install.
