[one-users] vmware deploy error: raw driver

[Tino Vazquez]

Hi Antoni,

Which version of ESX are you using? When developing the drivers, I
found that the driver line didn't impede the deployment of VMs. If
with other ESX versions this is a problem, I will make it an optional
parameter with no hardcoded value to avoid this kind of situations.

Best regards,

-Tino
