Re: [Linux-PowerEdge] Enough contiguous physical memory is not available to perform the BIOS update running under, this Operating System.
Just had this same issue with the latest SUU for R710. Any update on fixing this bug? Server is out of warranty.

Yeah, I too am running into this problem. I've got ~24G on the machine, that's not enough? I have logs of this error too. -- << MCT >> Michael C Tiernan xmpp:mtier...@mit.edu +1 (617) 324-9173 MIT - Laboratory for Nuclear Science - http://www.lns.mit.edu High Perf Research Computing Facility at The Bates Linear Accelerator Please avoid sending me MS-Word or MS-PowerPoint attachments.

Re: [Linux-PowerEdge] Enough contiguous physical memory is not available to perform the BIOS update running under, this Operating System.
Hi, We've checked with the dependent team regarding the problem you faced and the suggestion was to reboot the system to release contiguous memory. However, if you still face the issue after reboot, we advise you to please get in touch with Dell Technical Support.

Just a me too, but I was running dsu from a standard install not a liveCD, I rebooted and tried again a few times just in case. A centos6 livecd on the same box worked fine.
