# sudo apt-key add debian_sara.asc

# Now there is no need to download the debian packages below #Install IPMI tools;
#yum install openipmi ipmitool
sudo apt-get install openipmi

#Install OMSA dependancies:
sudo apt-get install snmp snmpd
sudo apt-get install -f lib32ncurses5 #sudo apt-get install -f libncurses5 sudo apt-get install -f ia32-libs #Only needed for 64bit machines
# on 64bit machines;
# dpkg --add-architecture i386 # this will enable the installation of i386 packages on x64
# apt-get update # If not use the deb packages below but the repo above, at this point you can execute;
# sudo apt-get install dellomsa #Grab OMSA and debian package (can be http): ONLY IF NOT USING REPO ABOVE #wget ftp://ftp.sara.nl/pub/outgoing/dell/binary-i386/dellomsa_5.5.0-5_i386.deb

#At this point, run the following to update libraries when using either repo or deb pkg sudo ldconfig

#For 32bit machine with library/dependencies missing;
sudo apt-get install libstdc++5
#May require: sudo apt-get install gcc-3.3-base
#For 64 bit machine we may need 32bit libstdc++5 from here, forced install on 64 bit machine:
