Hello,
I have a dell server running at a physically remote location. It has a DRAC for remote bios level console access. It got installed with 32 bit fedora by mistake and I need to reinstall with 64 bit fedora. It has 3 logical drives which are each actually raid1 drive pairs (sda, sdb, sdc) with the current OS installed on sda. sdb and sdc are more or less free. Is there a way that I can either install 64 bit FC17 to sdb (and then switch to booting from sdb), or "burn" a bootable install ISO to sdb and then boot from it to installl back to sda ? My main issue is that there is no CD media in the drive or USB flash stick and I am remote from the system, so I need to figure out how to do the reinstall using only the installed hard drives (and the console access I have via the DRAC)
