Can you just write what was supposed to be on the floppy to a CD and
still boot off the CD?

OK,

I know I am supposed to know this...but I am an IBM guy. I have Dell
servers now, and I am seeking an easy way to manage the
hardware/firmware etc. I know they have something called Server
Administrator, but I am not really familiar. Also, several of the
firmware updates I downloaded require a floppy, which of course, I don't
have.

 

With IBM, I used to download a CD, boot the server off that CD, and it
updated everything. Does Dell have an equivalent that anyone can point
me toward? Thanks!
