I am completely exhausted trying to installed the mellanox drivers in esxi4.1u1. i get the following output:
/tmp # esxupdate --bundle /tmp/ESX41u1_MLNX-OFED-1.4.1-2.0.000.zip update

This is supposed to be a lab for a proof of concept, but i am unable to install the drivers. i see people in this commmunity talking about using mellanox on esxi4.x, how did you install the drivers?
