Installing Red Hat Linux; Hp Software - HP xw4000 Service & Reference Manual

1.1.3 Installing Red Hat Linux

The first time the workstation is booted, the Linux Setup Tool utility displays. This program
allows you to enter your password, network, graphics, time, and keyboard settings for your
workstation.
Ä CAUTION: Once the automatic installation has begun, DO NOT TURN OFF THE WORKSTATION
UNTIL THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE. Turning off the workstation during the installation process may
damage the software that runs the workstation or prevent its proper installation.
When you enable the YPBind feature in the Network tab of the Linux Setup Tool, you may get a
blank screen for about 15-30 seconds after you have selected and saved all of your settings and
have exited the utility. This is normal. The boot process continues its execution after the screen
returns.
In the Time/Time Zone tab of the Linux Setup Tool utility, the Time Zone Region must be
selected first and then the City, before clicking the Save/Exit button.
