2.8Operating System Installation

For more detailed information about your operating system, refer to the documentation provided by the operating system vendor.

1.Install peripheral devices. CompactPCI* devices are automatically configured by the BIOS during the boot sequence.

2.Most operating systems require initial installation on a hard drive from a floppy or CD-ROM drive. These devices should be configured, installed, and tested with the supplied drivers before attempting to load the new operating system.

3.Read the release notes and installation documentation provided by the operating system vendor. Be sure to read any README files or documents provided on the distribution disks, as these typically note documentation discrepancies or compatibility problems.

4.Select the appropriate boot device order in the SETUP boot menu depending on the OS installation media used. For example, if the OS includes a bootable installation floppy, select Removable Media as the first boot device and reboot the system with the installation floppy installed in the floppy drive. (Note that if the installation requires a non-bootable CD-ROM, it is necessary to boot an OS with the proper CD-ROM drivers in order to access the CD-ROM drive).
