USB Updates for ESXi 4.1 -Repository Manager with Lifecycle Controller
Using Repository Manager 1.2 - does this support creating SUU for servers with ESXi 4.1installed, not Windows or ESX/Linux
As far as I can see the only bundles are for Windows or Linux and of course ESXi 4.1 unlike ESX does not have a full Linux distro.

I make the update bundle and create the SUU using RM to either USB , ISO or DVD. Top-level contains \repository\Catalog.xml
Using the iDRAC console I attach the SUU USB | ISO| DVD, reboot and F10 to drop into USC and select Platform Update, which finds the SUU fine, but when I enter Catalog Location as \repository as per the docs then in all instances it comes back with:
"Catalog file not authenticated correctly: do you want to porceed?". I've also tried repository\Catalog.xml etc. as the path with no luck.
Exactly the same result when using a USB stick in the server itself - recognised OK then fails as above.
Looking at the SUU_readme produced as part of the SUU by RM I see that ESX 4.1 *is* supported but ESXi 4.1 *is not* listed. any suggestions? Ireally don't want to spend ages on the console using ftp.dell as the source for the Platform Update.
