Remote System Installation

Remote System Installation allows you to start and set up your system using the
software and configuration information located on a network server. The
Remote System Installation feature is usually used as a system setup and
configuration tool, and can be used for the following tasks:
Formatting a hard drive
Installing an operating system
Installing application software or drivers
To initiate Remote System Installation, press the F12 key when you see the
words "F12=Network Service Boot" in the bottom-right corner of the Compaq
logo screen. Follow the instructions on the screen to continue the process.

Replicating Your Setup

This procedure gives an administrator the ability to easily copy one setup
configuration to other workstations of the same model. This allows for faster,
more consistent configuration of multiple workstations. To replicate your setup:
1. Turn on or restart the workstation.
2. When you see the words "F10=Setup" in the bottom-right corner of the
screen, press the F10 key.
NOTE: If you do not press the F10 key while the message is displayed, you
must turn off the workstation, then on again, to access the utility.
3. From the main menu, select File, then select Save to Floppy and follow
the instructions on the screen.
4. To replicate the configuration, select File, then select Restore from
Floppy and follow the instructions on the screen.
