Hi all,

Our new PowerEdge 2950 just arrived with a DRAC5.  After some brief 
experimentation, I've discovered that it's running BusyBox:

Dell Remote Access Controller 5 (DRAC 5)
Firmware Version 1.40 (Build 08.08.22)

$ sh --help
BusyBox v1.00 (2008.08.22-17:37+0000) multi-call binary

No help available.

Since BusyBox is released under the GPL, as I understand it the source 
code for the DRAC firmware must also be made available to comply with 
the terms in the GPL.

I've had a look around but I can't find where to download the firmware 
source.  Can someone let me know where it is?

Thanks,
Adam.
