Chapter 2 Installing Mac OS X Server 37
To set up an administrator computer:
1 Make sure the Mac OS X computer has Mac OS X version 10.5 Leopard installed.
2 Insert the Administration Tools disc.
3 Open the Installers folder.
4 Double-click ServerAdministrationSoftware.mpkg to open the Installer, and then follow
the onscreen instructions.
Installing Remotely
Using Server Assistant on an administrator computer, you can install Mac OS X Server
on another computer over the network. The computer you’re installing on doesn’t need
a display, but it does need a DVD drive for the Mac OS X Server Install Disc. If the
computer doesn’t have a built-in DVD drive, you can attach an external FireWire DVD
drive or a Mac that has a DVD drive and is operating in target disk mode.
You can perform:
 A new installation of Mac OS X Server on a disk that doesn’t already have Mac OS X
Server or Mac OS X installed.
 A clean installation, which installs Mac OS X Server after erasing and formatting a
target disk.
