Thus spake Bernard Li ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
SATA - probably, USB floppy - don't know.
I think we should start an "unofficial" hardware compatibility list for
SystemImager in the wiki...
Yes, do it.

Subject: RE: [Sisuite-users] Reading the local.cfg from a usb floppy
Hi Henrique,
I use a kernel from version 3.2 that was sent to me by Peter for a Poweredge 750. Its probably patched the libata patch. Right now because of my floppy problem, I can't really tell if that kernel is going to work for the 850. Do you have PE750 as well of just 850 ? Were you able to get the 750 to work ? I will take a look at upgrading to 3.6.2.
Bernard, does 3.6.2 solve the USB floppy problem or the SATA problem ?
Thanks for your help !
Simon

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
