After a feature request, support for all available VMDK disk types has been added.
Which isn’t as much work as it sounds. Heh…

saw you added vmdk disk type as an additional parameter – nice job. What about modifying the uuid number – is it worth the hassle even thought ESX can do it for you once you get the vmdk up and running?

In all honesty, I’m not even sure that the ESX takes the disk geometry parameters into account.
So, no I don’t think it’s worth the hassle.

Granted I don’t have access to ESX but this seems to be the case with the humble Workstation us mere mortals use. :P

On a more serious note, since it’s working as is I don’t see a reason to mess around with it.
