Loading the Operating System (O.S.)

2-2 Start-Up
To load the O.S., power up the VPU200 by pressing the rocker switch
(located on the front of the VPU) to the ON position (See Figure 2-1.) Next,
press the spacebar to display the Power-up Menu. This menu contains the
options for loading O.S., copying and formatting disks, and running
diagnostics on the VPU. Before loading the O.S., run diagnostics and copy or
format any disks as needed. Once the O.S. is loaded, this menu may be
accessed for these functions by either power cycling the VPU or exiting to
the first menu after loading the O.S. and using the F1 key.
