After you start the host console, the server initialization takes up to 20 minutes, depending on
your system configuration, to complete and the server boots.
After the server boots, the GRUB menu appears, providing prompts to install the preinstalled
OS.

From the GRUB menu, you can choose whether you want to continue to direct the display to
the serial port, or whether you want to direct the display to a device connected to the video port.
Note -
on the GRUB menu, after 10 seconds, the GRUB menu is no longer available, and the system
continues with the output directed to the serial port.
