SP4 Update SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SP4 fails to load on systems configured with quad-core processors and more than 4-GB of RAM. A future maintenance update from SUSE will correct this issue. Currently, you can bypass the issue by using one of the following methods: • In the System Setup program, enable the Node Interleaving option on the Memory Information screen. • In the operating system boot parameter file, set the memory parameter to a value less than 4-GB (for example, 3900m). See the operating system documentation if you need more information. Hyper-V Beta Virtualization Update Installing Microsoft Windows Vista® or Windows Server 2008 as a guest operating system on a virtual machine that was created with Hyper-V Beta virtualization software causes a system crash (blue screen) if the guest operating system is installed from the system's internal optical drive. No other operating systems are affected by this limitation. Until a chipset driver update to fix the error is provided on support.dell.com, use one of the following alternate methods for installing the guest operating system on the virtual machine: • Use an external USB optical drive attached to the host system. • Install the operating system using a PXE-based solution, such as Windows® Deployment Server. 8 Information Update
