When the server powers on for the first time, the server performs a POST and
launches RBSU. After selecting initial system settings, install your operating
system and perform additional configuration tasks. For additional information
about configuring your server with RBSU, refer to the Compaq ROM-Based
Setup Utility User Guide.
Installing an Operating System
To install an operating system on a new or previously unconfigured server,
you must configure the server with RBSU.
To configure the server for the first time:
1. Start the server. The system automatically launches RBSU.
2. When prompted, select a language.
3. Select the operating system you want to install on your server. A dialog
box displays, indicating that the system configuration is complete.
4. Press the F10 key to exit RBSU or press any other key to return to the
RBSU main menu.
