trying to update PowerEdge BIOS "Make sure the following utilities are in the path ..."



~
 While trying the update the BIOS of a PowerEdge 1850 using
Linux/Debian/knoppix 6.2, I got:
~
 spsetup.sh: line 124: source: buildVer.sh: file not found
 spsetup.sh: Cannot find utilities on the system to execute package.

 Make sure the following utilities are in the path:

 sed stty cut fmt stat look lockfile tail rm mkdir mktemp chmod ls
basename dirname sleep
~
 I did check all of these utilities and the only one apparently (or
actually) missing is "lockfile".
~
$ which lockfile
$ lockfile --version | grep version
bash: lockfile: command not found
~
 I am not sure (I have tried a number of things) which "lockfile" do they mean:
~
 http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=lockfile
~
 DELL supports RedHat and Susex in their servers. Is this a Red Hat
specific utility? and in case it is, what/how should I do/go?
~
 Thank you
