Probably...

I am just trying to get an all-in-one automated solution...

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!
