* A network download of RPMs requires that the target system have a
DHCP IP address and that the system is connected to a network.
* While configuring the hard drive on a system to install a Red Hat
Enterprise Linux operating system, if the hard drive space on your
system is used completely and the range specified in the GUI
against the "swap" partition is the same
(for example [1024 -1024] MB), the scroll bar remains to the
left side.

USER NOTES ON PREPARING LINUX OS INSTALLATION MEDIA
======================================================================
Systems Build and Update Utility performs a media check on the Linux
operating system media that is provided during installation. This
is so that you do not copy damaged media that will cause your
operating system installation to fail. This is a default action
performed by SBUU, and you cannot disable it.
It has been observed that certain CD burning software fail to
prepare media to pass the media check.
Dell recommends that you use the optical media obtained from the
operating system vendor to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux or
SUSE Linux operating systems using Systems Build and Update Utility.
If it is necessary to burn the media using CD burning software,
ensure that you:
* Obtain the ISO image file of the media from known sources.
* Try burning the media at slower speeds
* Use the "Disk at Once" or a similar option.
* Close the session.
