Update Bios Dell PowerEdge R410
Hello, I have three Dell servers with the same error, I need to update the BIOS from 1.11.0 to 1.14.0 according to the Dell website and there I can find the files for the update:
BIOS_XXNW5_WN64_1.14.0_01.EXE
R410_BIOS_XXNW5_LN_1.14.0.BIN.sign
PER410-011400C.exe
R410_BIOS.1.14.0_RN.pdf
BIOS_XXNW5_WN32_1.14.0_01.EXE
R410_BIOS_XXNW5_LN_1.14.0.BIN
However, my server does not have an operating system and I cannot install it because the drivers are outdated. I managed to update the IDRAC to version 2.92 updated via IDRAC with the file: firmimg.d6, however the Dell PowerEdge R410 does not have the bios.d6 file to update via IDRAC. I have already tried all the files above via IDRAC and I always get an error.
I also tried via PenDrive via FreeDoS but the server rejects the command saying that the command is not valid, but since my BIOS is old I think that is why. I have already tried via bootable, but the .exe, .BIN files are invalid and do not perform the update.
However, I noticed that some Dell servers from generation 11 have an .ISO update file. I would like to ask Dell for this update file or a way that works correctly to update the Dell PowerEdge R410 server.
Can you provide me with this .ISO file so I can update my server or a way that works, since I have three servers stopped?

I managed to resolve the BIOS update by simply using the file with the .EXE extension in FreeDoS Mode, creating a bootable media with Rufus, and thus I was able to update from version 1.11.0 to 1.14.0
But now I find that I cannot install any operating system on the server. When the operating system is loading for installation, the server simply freezes and restarts. Could someone help me? The changes made were to update the idrac to version 2.92 and the BIOS to 1.14.0. Is there anything else I need to update and how should I update it?
