Remote Installation Using a Remote Resource Server
In remote installation using a remote resource server, ServerStart starts up on the target server.
Procedures for starting installation are the same as those in normal installation (preconfiguration mode,
guided mode, and expert mode). Once installation started, resources necessary for installation are
provided from the remote resource server. Thus, procedures such as inserting a CR-ROM are not
necessary.
