Hi Simon,

We also just bought a dozen of Dell PowerEdge 850's, but I'm having a lot of trouble for the systemimager kernel to detect the SATA disks. Can you tell me what kernel are you using ou how you managed to get the hard disks to be detected?

Thanks in advance,
Henrique

PS: as for your problem, check out this site - http://www.simonf.com/usb/ - I hope it helps!

Hello all,
         We just bought a bunch of DELL poweredge 850 and the little twist is 
that they come with no floppy drive. I have a small compute grid here and every 
machine use static IP. I used to provide the IP and the name of the machine 
through the local.cfg file on a floppy and it worked fine. I tried to use a USB 
floppy drive in hope that BOEL would see it as a normal floppy but without 
success. Does it require a lot of OS support in order to use a USB floppy ? 
(The USB floppy works fine as I can use it as a boot media however I have to 
boot system imager on a CD since the kernel that I am using to support SATA 
don't fit on a diskette)

Thanks for your insights in the matter !

Simon
