Dell Deployment ToolKit
The Dell Deployment Toolkit (DTK) includes a set of utilities, sample scripts, and sample conguration les that you can use to deploy and
congure the Dell systems. You can use DTK to build script-based and RPM-based installation for deploying large number of systems on a
pre-operating system environment in a reliable way, without changing their current deployment processes. Using DTK you can install
operating systems on Dell systems in BIOS mode.
NOTE
: If the folders containing boot critical drivers are not present, then the wizard displays an error message.
