iDRAC6 and modifying the LCD text.

[Cory Meyer]

Is there a quick way to update the text on the LCD display from within
Linux?  I'd really like to display the current hostname and system load if
at all possible.

I've been attempting this via racadm and the closest value that I can find
is the -g ifcRacManagedNodeOS  -o ifcRacMnOsHostname value which in idrac6.
The problem is that this is a read-only value and links back to the actual
"Host Name" displayed in the LCD window.   Looks like in earlier versions
this was a read/write value according to the docs.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Cory
