6. Insert the "LC2000 BIOS Update diskette" in the flexible disk drive.
NOTE You may use the HP Navigator CD-ROM for the HP NetServer LC 2000 to create a
bootable floppy to do the BIOS recovery. If your NetServer is not functioning, the HP
Navigator CD-ROM will autorun on any Windows PC, where you can create the
"LC2000 BIOS Update diskette".
7. Power up the HP NetServer.
The HP NetServer beeps once (short beep), if the "LC2000 BIOS Update diskette" is inserted
while the LED on the flexible disk drive is on.
If you didn't insert the "LC2000 BIOS Update diskette" in the flexible disk drive, the NetServer
beeps one long and two short beeps.
8. Wait for continuous long beeps, which indicates the BIOS update is done.
