Not an option.  The OS is the base for an appliance, and RHEL4u5 is the
supported rev.  Hopefully, RHEL5 will be qualified soon, and we can
start using that.

Anyway, it turns out that this is an issue that pops up on some x3650s.
I was able to borrow another machine from another group and got my
install done.  If I'm tasked with figuring this out, it may be a BIOS
issue, hardware rev, etc.  Otherwise, I suppose I'll just reject any
machines that display this issue and let their owners worry about it :-)
