Chapter 1. System Startup
Thank you for selecting an IBM RS/6000 7025 F50 Series system!
The IBM RS/6000 7025 F50 Series system combines PowerPC 604 microprocessor
performance and system expandability, ensuring that your system adapts to handle
ever-changing operating requirements. The system is specifically designed to
support the demands of network environments.
The IBM RS/6000 7025 F50 Series system incorporates the new, advanced
peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus, which is faster than the industry
standard architecture (ISA) bus. But the system also offers ISA as a additional bus
architecture, to accommodate businesses that already have invested in ISA and
ISA-based devices.
This book helps you set up and use the system, install and remove options,
configure the system, and use the system programs that are provided. This book
also provides information to help you solve some of the simpler problems that might
occur, and how to obtain assistance and service. Appendix A, “System Records” on
page A-1 provides a section for you to record all the important information about
your system.
