ESXi on iDrac vFlash

Hi,

Just wondering - is it possible to install a bootable ESXi OS on a Dell-branded vFlash card insterted in the front slot of an R620 server?  I know that it would not automatically boot from this media - the purpose of it would be if the OS crashes, a tech could log in to the server's iDrac ccontroller, select to boot from this media, then reboot the server.  Once it came back, reload the VM's (on a different drive than the core OS) into the ESXi and restart them.  If this would work, does anyone know how it can be done?  If not, then I'll get some USB drives to act as backup boot media.

Thanks,

Brian
