Probably not. I don't know how to update this. These machines are in rack
mount cases, and do not have CDs or floppy drives in and I cannot easily
put in an extra ethernet card either to test them. I can take the lot apart
and put a floppy in each one, one by one, but there seems to be the problem
that there are no (small) power connectors for floppy drives.

I'm going to have to leave it until after the weekend to decide what to do
with these.

I seriously advise anyone considering using OSCAR not to buy this supermicro
board - I've already wasted two weeks trying to install in them. The vendor
that sold me these machines said they were fully Linux compliant, but
clearly the supermicro boards are not as easy to use as other boards by
ASUS or TYAN that I have used in the past.
