How can I make my USB key
bootable?
Search support.dell.com for the Dell Boot Utility, a
Windows program you can use to make your Dell
USB key bootable.
You can also boot with a Windows 98 startup disk
and copy system files from the startup disk to your
USB key. For example, from the DOS prompt,
enter the following command:
sys a:
x
: /s
where x: is the USB key you want to make bootable.
What file system types are
supported on my Virtual
Floppy Drive?
Your Virtual Floppy Drive supports FAT16 or
FAT32 file systems.
When I performed a firmware
update remotely using iDRAC6
Web interface, my virtual drives
at the server were removed.
Why?
Firmware updates cause iDRAC6 to reset, drop the
remote connection, and unmount the virtual
drives. The drives will reappear when iDRAC6 reset
is complete.
