24 Chapter 1 Installation and Setup Overview

Local Installation From the Server Installation Disc

If the target server has a keyboard and display attached, and if it has an optical drive,

you can start installing Mac OS X Server locally by booting the server from an

installation disc.

The Installer application, which automatically opens after startup, offers a graphical,

guided way to install server software. See “Using the Installer to Install Locally From the

Installation Disc” on page 63 for instructions.

If you prefer using the command line, start the Terminal application from the Installer

menu and follow the instructions in “Using the installer Command-Line Tool to Install

Server Software” on page 73.
