TURNING ON THE SERVER
Turn on the server and follow the on-screen instructions for setup.
IMPORTANT:
Before turning on the server:
!
Some optional boards require setups with the SETUP utility before
installation. If the server has a PCI board with the PCI-to-PCI bridge
installed, the SETUP utility is enabled to launch. Check on the board
specifications to find out whether it requires pre-installation setups
before actually installing the board.
!
Some installed optional devices or connected peripheral devices
require setups before proceeding to the next step.
To use the server with no optional devices installed besides the graphic
board, install a desired OS to the server.
