Re: Anyone have a list of any Dell servers that have linuxbios runnin g?

Good news.  Two companies I have worked for have been Dell users.  It
would be nice to have LinuxBIOS available in that environment.

I haven't heard of anyone ever using LinuxBIOS on a Dell.

I was considering a WebApp 120 (discontinued) since it had an Intel BX
chipset.  Some of the current Dell servers, such as the PowerEdge 1650,
have ServerWorks chipsets.  I believe people have been unsuccessful at
getting documentation on these chipsets (NDA issues).  This is something
to think about.

Jeremy

it's been a lack-of-interest thing with dell, plus a lack-of-cooperation 
thing with serverworks. The first has apparently been fixed, I don't know 
if the second can ever be fixed.
