Hey, that's a project on my back plate I'd love some pointers on. I tried to 
get the Dell Repo for software utilities and it's larger than CentOS and wants 
to install half the world. I haven't gotten back to figure out how to get a 
minimal installation out of it. Can I throw beer at you for pointers on that?

Basically we just want the DRAC utilities and the RAID card software, but 
access to things like hardware temp sensors would be nice too. Feel free to 
reply directly, or keep it on list if you want to share with everyone.
