Step 4. Determine the hardware path of the install device from your system
administrator. (There is no search capability to determine this
information on older HP server models).
• If the primary path shown on your screen is not the same as that for
the install device, respond with n to Boot from primary boot path.
In this case, you will then be asked if you want to boot from the
alternate path, which is typically set to the CD or DVD device.
• If the primary path shown on your screen matches that for the install
device, respond with: y
• If neither the primary or alternate device paths correspond to that
for the CD or DVD device, respond with n to both prompts. In this
case, enter the hardware path of the device (for example, 52.3.0) at
the prompt: Enter boot path, command, or ?>
Step 5. To the question Interact with IPL (y or n)?, enter: n
TIP To start over at this point, simply switch the system OFF and ON again.
After choosing the boot path and the install utility loads, the keyboard
languages screen appears (if your system has a PC-style keyboard).
Respond to the requests for information on this and the following
screens. Loading the install kernel takes 3 to 5 minutes.
