24 USC and USC - LCE
Insert the Operating System Media
Insert the operating system installation media when prompted and
click Next.
USC supports internal SATA optical drives and USB optical drives and
USC - LCE supports internal SATA optical drives, USB optical drives, and
virtual media devices. If the installation media is corrupt or not readable,
then USC and USC-LCE may be unable to detect the presence of a
supported optical drive. In this case, you may receive an error message stating
that no optical drive is available. If the media is not valid (if it is the incorrect
CD or DVD, for example), a message displays requesting that you insert the
correct installation media.
For USC - LCE only: Virtual media is supported through iDRAC. See the
User Guide for your system’s iDRAC device for more information on setting
up virtual media through iDRAC.
Reboot the System
Prerequisite
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 UEFI operating system installations are not
currently supported.
Use the following step to reboot the system:
1
Click Finish to reboot the system and continue with the operating system
installation. Upon reboot, the system boots to the operating system
installation media.
CAUTION: During the beginning of Windows Server
®
2003 installation, the
installer will automatically detect and possibly assign the default drive letter C
to USC and USC-LCE temporary storage device OEMDRV. Creating a new
Windows-bootable system partition on the hard-disk will assign the partition to a
drive letter other than C; this is standard Windows installer behavior. To assign
the new partition to C, see "Assign a Windows-Bootable System Partition to the C:
Drive" for more information.
Post-requisites
• When the system reboots after you click Finish , you may be prompted to
press a key before booting to the operating system installation media. If
you do not press a key, the system boots to the hard-disk and not the
operating system installation media.
