When one makes a local mirror of the Dell repo, how big is it? I tried to make
a mirror once and it downloaded gigs and gigs of stuff and I ran out of disk on
my repo server. I'm about to add more disk and wondering how much I really need.

Wow, this is gold! Thanks! You mentioned having SuperMicro also. I support a
mix of Dell and SuperMicro. Do you have something similar for SuperMicro
kickstart? Setting up DRAC/IPMI is an area where we have been deficient which I
would like to improve through automation.
