To update a ESXi install from 5.5 to 6.0, download the ESXi 6.0 offline bundle and upload it to a datastore on the server.
Log in via SSH and execute
esxcli software vib update -d /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/ESXi600-201504001.zip
Then reboot to apply the changes.

IOMMU Hangs
If your ESXi server hangs while "Initializing IOV", disable IOMMU by appending 'noIOMMU' to the kernel immediately after the new kernel boots by hitting Shift-O (letter O, not zero)
To make the changes persistent, add it to the boot arguments in /bootbank/boot.cfg
