The F6 utility is flaky, and SBUU can take SEVERAL minutes to load and get to the point you can install an OS. Here is what I would do: Make sure you are using this driver: www.dell.com/.../DriverDetails And use nLiteOS.com to integrate the driver into your installation files - this will create a new CD with which to install.  At the appropriate time during the nLite process, choose Multiple Driver Files, select ALL drivers that are presented, then choose TextMode. Make sure you have SP2 on your 2003 R2 media.  If you don't, then use nLite to integrate the Service Pack too.
 All, I'm trying to install Windows Server 2003 R2 on a PowerEdge 1950.  I tried the Dell USB Key F6 Driver Utility which I wipe my USB HDD. It turns my USB Drive into a Floppy 1.44MB but then when I try to put the driver on there it says The USB drive is too small to load.  I also tried to use the Dell Systems Build and Update Utility: It's just loading up and saying this when I try to boot to that DVD: ISOLINUX blah blah and then nothing else shows up  I downloaded the following drivers: BR182607.exe DELL_SAS-6-IR-INTEGRATED_A04_R197383 R194052.exe SAS-RAID_Driver_FF6F6_WN32_1.28.03.01_A06   How can I load these so my SAS controller will show the hdd's in Windows Server 2003 Install?  All help is appreciated,I've been working on this for awhile now.    Kent C
