Enterprise Linux version 4, hot plug IDE is not supported and
the system may hang when a remount of the virtual drives is
attempted. Do not attempt to remount virtual drives after a
firmware update. Restart the server to regain access
to the drives.

Redirection lose focus. Before attempting to type in a text window
in a Console Redirection window, click the mouse in the text
window's space bar or top menu bar to ensure that your target text
window has the focus on the correct window or application that you
are attempting to use.
* Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 4 operating system requires an
updated driver (ide-scsi) for the virtual CD to work. This driver
is available on the "Dell Systems Management Tools and
Documentation" DVD.
