It's been a couple of years since I've played with this, and my memory is fuzzy, but this is what I can dredge up; sorry if any of it is misremembered: The virtual media plugin gives you a path to move stuff to the DRAC, albeit in a block-oriented way. This is not needed with the NFS path and a root shell, but it was when I was working from the restricted busybox user shell. The firmware image has a CRAMFS at some offset. You can dd this off and unpack it to get the firmware contents. Again, not as necessary with a source release. This site used to host a bunch of MIPS/Linux binaries which would run on the DRAC, though I'm not sure where they've gone to. http://www.paralogos.com/mipslinux/ There appear to be more resources these days. This looks promising: ftp://ftp.linux-mips.org/pub/linux/mips/redhat/7.1/RPMS/ _______________________________________________ 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
