Youmust enter all for the new hardware support to be

loaded during the installation process.

Yousee a prompt similar to the following:

You chose the following products:

1’Tru64 UNIX V5.1A Operating System (Rev nnn )’with

’MYVGASTATIC software version 1’

2’MYVGASTATIC software version 1’

Is that correct? (y/n) [y]:

7. Enter yto confirm your selection.

What happens next depends upon whether profile sets reside on the RIS

server. See Chapter 7 for information about profile sets.

• Ifno such profile sets reside on the RIS server, the ris utility

proceeds to the next step.

• Ifprofile sets reside on this RIS server, you see the following prompt:

Do you want to specify an Installation Profile Set for use

during the installation of this client? [y/n] [n]:

Choose one of the following options:

– Enternif you do not want to specify a profile set for Installation

Cloning. The ris utility proceeds to the next step.

– Enteryto specify a profile set for Installation Cloning. Yousee a

prompt similar to the following:

This RIS server has the following Installation Profile Sets available:

Astation400 Astation400a rz26

Enter a set name or press <Return> to exit set selection:

If you select a profile set, the ris utility validates it before

proceeding. If you do not want to select an available profile

set, press Return.

8. Yousee the following prompt:

Network type:

1) Ethernet or FDDI

2) Token Ring
