ASTi ACE Studio Cold Start Procedure (Ver. 2, Rev. J)

4.0. ACE Studio Cold Start Procedure

Warning: ASTi highly recommends that there are no KVM switches connected to the

system during the cold start process. Or at a minimum if you run into an issue with a

KVM, disconnect it and then try the cold start process again.

4.1. Installing RHEL Software

The following steps are for software versions 4.10 and above.

1. Power on the system via the power switch.

1a. If you are cold starting the 2U platform, insert the AST

i DVD immediately, and

ensure that the system boots off the ASTi DVD.

1b. If you are cold starting the small footprint computer system, hold down the ‘ALT’ key

while inserting the ASTi DVD and ensure that the system boots off the DVD.

2. At the prompt, select

RHEL Studio [Default]

and press enter.

Note: For ACE software versions 4.30 and previous, the prompt screen is different. At the

prompt type “studio” and press enter.
