After the hardware has been installed, you can install the Operating System (OS), configure
RAID settings and install the drivers.
5.1 OS Installation
If you will be using RAID, you must configure RAID settings before installing the OS and the
RAID driver. Refer to the RAID Configuration User Guides posted on our website at
supermicro.com/support/manuals.
Installing the OS
1. Create a method to access the OS installation ISO file. That might be a DVD, perhaps
using an external USB/SATA DVD drive, or a USB flash drive, or the IPMI KVM console.
2. Retrieve the proper RST/RSTe driver. Go to the Supermicro web page for your
motherboard and click on "Download the Latest Drivers and Utilities", select the proper
driver, and copy it to a USB flash drive.
3. Boot from a bootable device with Windows OS installation. You can see a bootable
device list by pressing F11 during the system startup.
