Firmware upgrade ISO ?

[Nick_Parrott at Dell.com]

Simple answer: NO

There is the SUU Pre-req CD, which is used to bring a machine up the the
pre-req level, allowing SUU (Systems Update utility) to carry on, from
the OS via an SUU CD.

SUU (for use in an OS.. sadly)

best bet, if you want to automate the process somewhat, would be to burn
a CD with FDD/HDD emulation and put the floppy updates onto there.
unsupported, however has been done by my previous customers before

Is there such a thing as a bootable ISO that would be able to upgrade
the firmware (BIOS/Backplane/RAID) on various Dell servers
(2550/2650/1650/1750/1850/1950/1855 etc)
