Setting Up a Service Partition (Optional)
The service partition contains diagnostics and tools to allow for configuration modifications if problems
occur. Your system should have a pre-loaded service partition. The service partition is present if the F4 key
is visible at the bottom of the screen during initial boot of the system. If the service partition is present, you
can proceed to Installing The Windows 2003 AS Operating System as documented later in this procedure.
If F4 is not visible on initial boot, set up a service partition as follows:
NOTE These directions for setting up a service partition assume that the BIOS gives priority to the
CD-ROM drives over the hard drive.

Resource CD into the CD-ROM drive. The server will boot from the CD and display the Server
Configuration Wizard.
2. Click Continue.
3. Select Server Configuration Utilities.
4. Click Continue.
