SATA Optical Drive Support on RHEL3 and SLES9

SATA optical drives are supported on RHEL 3 Update 8 and SLES 9 SP4.
Older releases of these operating systems do not support SATA optical drives.
RHEL – Incorrect Processor Information
• If an Intel Xeon 54xx processor is installed in a system running
RHEL Version 4 Update 5 and Demand-Based Switching is
enabled in the BIOS, cat/proc/cpuinfo and
cat/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuxx/cpufreq/scaling_
cur_freq displays an incorrect processor frequency. (The actual
processor speed is not affected.)
• If an Intel Xeon 54xx processor is installed in a system running RHEL
Version 3 Update 9, incorrect processor information is displayed
in /proc/cpuinfo. (The actual processor speed is not affected.)
This behavior will be corrected in a future RHEL 4 Update.

System Support for Microsoft Windows 2000

If you run the System Build and Update Utility, Microsoft
is included in the list of operating systems on the Server OS Install tab.
This operating system is supported by the PowerEdge 2900 and 2900 II
systems, but not by the PowerEdge 2900 III system.
