Can't update iDRAC Firmware

Hi

I have two Dell Poweredge R420 with ESX installed which both fails during boot in the process Initializing idrac...

I have made several ISO images of different iDRAC versions via Dell repository management. But nothing works.

Right now the installed version is 1.65.65 i have tried updating to 1.66.65 and also later versions such as 2.15 but nothing works as mentioned.

I manged to update BIOS because i could update using a .EFI file. But i cant update using a bootable image.

I downloaded iDRAC v2.15 as a .BIN file and made a ISO file which i put on a USB that i made bootable using RUFUS. 

After that i press F11 to boot on the USB using BIOS. 

First it failes then i press "Alt" + "F2" to get into the command line interface.

From there i type "mount /dev/sda1 /opt/dell/toolkit/systems/"  then i type "/opt/dell/toolkit/systems/drm_files/apply_bundeles.sh" then it starts executing but then it starts Collecting inventory but then it fails and give me theese to lines back

"grep: /proc/ipmi/0/si_stats: No such file or directory"
"...sh: ./disneyinstall.sh: No such file or directory"

Then it says "This update package is not compatible with your system configuration"

What can i do about this?
