Using a Non-Mac OS X Computer for Administration
You can use a non-Mac OS X computer that offers SSH support, such as a UNIX
workstation, to administer Mac OS X Server using command-line tools. See the
command-line administration guide for more information.
Installer
Use the Installer to install server software on a local server from the Mac OS X Server
installation disc. The Installer lets you perform:
 A clean installation of Mac OS X Server, which installs version 10.4 after erasing and
formatting a target disk.
 An upgrade installation, which upgrades Mac OS X Server version 10.3.9 or 10.2.8 to
version 10.4 without erasing any data.
 A new installation of Mac OS X Server on a volume that has no Mac OS X system files
on it.
See Chapter 3, “Installing Server Software,” for information about how to use the
Installer.
