BL10e Slow performance in DOS via floppy/CD

When we attach a floppy or CD drive into the management interface on the BL10e blades, the performance in DOS is incredibly slow! It scrolls the text at about the speed of downloading it at 110 baud...is anyone else running into this, and is there a solution?

Is this real mode DOS or is this a command prompt or another item using the NTVDM in Win2000? Does it appear to be similar to this:

It is with a true DOS boot disk or CD. It just echos the lettering EXTREMELY slowly.

I'm running into *exactly* the same thing. Network performance also seems to be slow. I'm booting via a USB floppy.
