Hi again, As a number of people seem to be interested in this I thought I'd post a few followup notes.
Amazingly Dell have included the source code for a number of their own utilities in the release, such as racadm. This is great to see. However perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not the complete source. There is an "internal command table" that is empty in the racadm source file for example, so they've removed some of the undocumented commands I found in the binary, such as: racadm bootblock (-u updates but is unavailable) racadm edid racadm getteaminfo racadm getsensors racadm krbkeytabupload racadm localConRedirDisable (this is documented in some places) racadm util Maybe this was to discourage us from flashing our own code? Who knows. If anyone from Dell is listening, you really don't have to bother doing that :-) There are also a few other files like this that have been replaced by "stub functions". At any rate I guess the next step is to either figure out how to get into the shell, or how to build an image that can be reflashed. Probably a bit risky reflashing without knowing more about the board though. There is a file that hints about mounting the root filesystem over NFS which would be ideal, but I'm sure it's more complicated to achieve than configuring a DHCP server accordingly as the code suggests. Cheers, Adam. _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
