Remote System Installation

Remote System Installation allows you to start and set up your system using the software and configuration information located on a network server. The Remote System Installation feature is usually used as a system setup and configuration tool, and can be used for the following tasks:

Formatting a hard drive

Installing an operating system

Installing application software or drivers

To initiate Remote System Installation, press F12 when the F12=Network

Service Boot message appears in the lower-right corner of the screen.

Replicating Your Setup

NOTE: If you do not press the F10 key while the message is displayed, you must turn off the workstation, then on again to access the utility.

3.From the main menu, select File, then select Save to Floppy and follow the instructions on the screen.

4.To replicate the configuration, select File, then select Restore from Floppy and follow the instructions on the screen.
