Installing the Operating System 4-3
Express Setup requires a configuration diskette. The configuration diskette is a floppy disk that
includes the configuration information for the server to be automatically installed. Express Setup
automatically performs the setup using the information from the floppy disk.
Express Setup includes two types of installation methods.
!
Quick start
Quick start uses a configuration diskette with configuration parameters for the server
which were pre-specified before starting the Express Setup. Configuration parameters
can be pre-specified by using Express Setup for Windows (see the EXPRESSBUILDER
User's Guide located on the EXPRESSBUILDER CD).
!
Normal start
Normal start creates the configuration diskette during Express Setup.
NOTES:
!
To perform Express Setup, BIOS Setup must prioritize the CD-ROM
drive as the first boot up device before the diskette drive and hard
drive.
!
You can create the configuration diskette in advance using "Express
Setup for Windows" included on EXPRESSBUILDER.
!
By creating the configuration diskette in advance, fewer parameters
need to be entered during Express Setup. You can also create or
modify the setup information stored on the configuration diskette
during Express Setup. If you have a computer other than
Express5800 server that is running Windows 95/98, Windows NT
3.51 or later, or Windows 2000, we recommend you edit the setup
information from the computer in advance using Express Setup for
Windows.
For more information on how to create the configuration diskette using
Express Setup for Windows, see Chapter 5.
