System Memory; Using The Power Button; Console Redirection - Dell PowerEdge 600SC Update Manual

System Memory

To prevent possible compatibility problems, do not use Micron 128-MB memory modules
in your system.
Memory modules must be installed starting with the first connector (farthest from the
microprocessor) and leaving no open connectors between installed memory modules. See
"Installing System Options" in the Installation and Troubleshooting Guide for information
on adding additional memory.

Using the Power Button

To start the system, press the power button and release it as soon as the green power
indicator is lit. If you continue to press the power button, the system shuts down.
To turn off the system, press and release the power button. The system will perform an
orderly shutdown before power is turned off. If you press the power button for more than
4 seconds to shut down the system, power is turned off immediately.
If you select the Disable Power Button option using the System Setup program, the power
button will still function throughout system POST, but will be deactivated just before the
operating system is loaded.
System Lockup While Loading a DOS-Mode CD
Drive Device Driver
If your system includes a CD drive and a slave IDE device such as a tape backup unit, your
system may lock up while loading a DOS-mode device driver for the CD drive (such as
when you boot the system from a bootable diskette or CD). If this problem occurs, update
the DOS device driver for the CD drive by downloading the latest device driver from
www.cdrom-drivers.com.

Console Redirection

Console redirection is not currently supported at the operating system level but is
supported during system POST.
