Installing The Operating System; Assisted Smartstart Operating System Installation - HP DL760 - ProLiant - 1 GB RAM User Manual

Installing the Operating System

If you are installing the operating system using the SmartStart CD, configure it by
using the instructions in the following section.
NOTE: In this chapter, configuring the server means creating partitions on the hard drive,
installing HP utilities, and installing the operating system.

Assisted SmartStart Operating System Installation

If you purchased the operating system separately, you need to configure the server
and install the operating system using the SmartStart CD.
NOTE: If you do not use the SmartStart CD, refer to the Array Controller Driver Installation kit
for your boot device drivers.
SmartStart is the intelligent way to configure the server and to load the system
software, thereby achieving a well-integrated server that ensures maximum
dependability and supportability.
To install the SmartStart CD:
1. With the server turned on, locate the CD-ROM drive.
2. Push the button to release the tray. Pull out the tray.
3. Place the SmartStart CD in the tray (label facing up), handling the CD from the
edges, not by the flat surfaces of the disc.
