I looked into this a year ago. We tried to make it work with dell 350.
We kept running into one problem after another. In the end we punted. They
claim it is easy but I think the BIOS vendors want you to pay (and pay and
pay) for the real information on how to make it work.

However, I have no objection if somebody wants to try it again with
something reasonable. But Dell will not help you at all. Their attitude is
strictly oriented to increasing next-quarter sales.
