Step 2. From the Ignite-UX Welcome screen, select Install HP-UX to begin
interacting with the Ignite-UX (cold-install) program and then press
Enter. The system displays the User Interface and Media Options
window.
Step 3. From the User Interface and Media Options window, choose the
degree of customizing needed to configure the installation. Mark your
choices and select
OK.
• Select the default setting (Media only installation) shown in Source
Location Options for installing from a DVD.
• Select from one of the three choices shown in User Interface
Options:
— Guided Installation provides tutorial information and limited
choices for inexperienced Ignite-UX users. (Ignite-UX permits
you to exit from Guided Installation. You can restart the
configuration using Advanced Installation later by either
selecting the
Cancel button or pressing C.)
— Advanced Installation enables you to customize your system
on tabbed screens. Use this mode to change VxVM settings. You
may also find it convenient to set system parameters, network
services, file-system characteristics, and other configuration
details.For more help on using
Advanced Installation, refer to the
Ignite-UX Administration Guide.
— No User Interface uses all the defaults and begins.
The remaining sections take you through the Guided Installation
option.
