the Systems Build And Update Utility Home page is to navigate
the Systems Build and Update Utility navigation only.
The selected keyboard layout setting is not passed to the
installed operating system.
* The Utility Partition created by Systems Build and Update Utility
contains diagnostic utilities for your system. On rare occasions,
incompatibilities between disk firmware and controller firmware
may cause the Utility Partition to be inaccessible. In this case,
you can download the diagnostic utilities for your system from
the Dell Support website at "support.dell.com" to some other
media and perform the system diagnostics by booting from that
media.
* Do not use the Dell Remote Access Controller (DRAC) virtual
media to run "Firmware Update" on the system. This procedure
breaks the virtual media connection, causing the firmware
update procedure to fail.
* USB keys formatted with NT File System (NTFS) or file
allocation table (FAT)16 are not supported.
* Any network or Windows share or CD/DVD that you use an input
to the Repository must not contain any extra file or folder that
is not part of the Server Update Utility (SUU) content.
* When you select the "No Change" option for Trusted Platform
Module (TPM) Activation, under Boot sequence and security tab,
the TPM activation token will not be saved to the ".ini" file.
* "Digitally sign communications" enabled Windows share on a
system running on Windows cannot be accessed. To access the
share, disable this feature on the Windows system.
* While trying to connect to SMB shares, if the SBUU fails to connect,
try using simple passwords which do not have special characters.
Also, if the system is part of a domain, use the domain user name for
authentication than using the local system users.
* When you insert multiple USB keys into your system, Systems Build and
Update Utility uses the last inserted USB key which has a repository that
is applicable to the platform to which your system belongs and is
compatible with the Systems Build and Update Utility repository.

USER NOTES FOR WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEMS
======================================================================
* During Windows installation, the system will automatically log on
to finish the post-installation tasks and will then automatically
log out. It is recommended that you do not perform any task until
the system has automatically logged out. Installation might end
incorrectly if the installation process is interrupted.
