Processor
Your system contains up to two Intel
either 400 or 533 MHz, and a minimum internal operating frequency of 2.4 GHz.
In systems with a 400-MHz front-side bus, the 266-MHz DDR SDRAM memory modules
run at 200 MHz.
Flashing the System BIOS
If you need to flash the system's BIOS, go to the Dell Support website at support.dell.com
and download the most current BIOS available for your system. Do not use the system
BIOS that was provided on your Dell OpenManage Server Assistant CD.
Installing Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1
Dell recommends installing Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1 using the Server Assistant
CD, which ensures proper loading of all the drivers and avoids use of the driver update
diskette. If you intend to install Red Hat Linux using the driver update diskette instead of
the Server Assistant CD, ensure that you download the latest drivers for Red Hat Linux
Advanced Server 2.1 from the Dell Support website at support.dell.com.
