Before you install an OS

After powering on the Z9264F-ON switch, it goes through a power-on self-test (POST).
POST runs every time the switch is initialized and checks the hardware components to determine if the switch is fully operational before
booting. After POST, the switch uses the Grub bootloader.
To select an entry, use the up and down arrow keys. Press Enter to select an OS or enter e to edit the commands before booting. Enter c
for a command line. The selected entry runs automatically in the operating system.
