I thought esxi can be installed from USB as well? Or is that it can be run from USB memory stick?
Incorrect I believe
You can either use USB such as an embedded installation or PXE.

The installation script ( ks.cfg) can reside in any of these locations:
•FTP
•HTTP/HTTPS
•NFS Share
•USB flash drive
•CD/DVD device
Therefore, B and C are correct
.
The answers are B and C as stated above, the question itself is flawed…
It should read something like:
What are two alternate ways to provide the ESXi 5.x installation script to the host?
The installation kick starter file can point to storage locations on FTP, or HTTP. Answer D does not indicate the media as USB is an interface. And PXE is a start up protocol not a storage location.
This is how vmware test questions are worded. It is to make you pick apart the answers.
