This is not normal. I’m using dellomsa in this version on different Dell PE1950 and PE2950 systems (AMD64) without problems. You don’t see, what problems there are. You could dig through /var/lib/dpkg/info/dellomsa.postinst to see what it does.

From my experience you need the following kernel options:
# IPMI
CONFIG_IPMI_HANDLER=m
CONFIG_IPMI_PANIC_EVENT=y
CONFIG_IPMI_PANIC_STRING=y
CONFIG_IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE=m
CONFIG_IPMI_SI=m
CONFIG_IPMI_WATCHDOG=m
CONFIG_IPMI_POWEROFF=m

It wouldn’t work compiled into the kernel, they need to be modules.
And Dell kernel options:
CONFIG_DELL_RBU=m
CONFIG_DCDBAS=m
must be modules as well (they are not really needed for OMSA).

Shade and sweet water!
