Step 2. From the Ignite-UX Welcome screen, select Install HP-UX to begin
interacting with the Ignite-UX (cold-install) program and then press
Enter. The system displays the User Interface and Media Options.
Step 3. From the User Interface and Media Options window, choose the
degree of customizing needed to configure the installation. Mark your
choices and select
OK.
• Select from one of the three choices shown in Source Location
Options:
— Media only installation is the default setting for installing
from a DVD.
— Media with network enabled is recommended when you want
basic networking enabled during installation so you can load
software from a network depot (when an Ignite-UX server is not
available).
— Ignite-UX server based installation is recommended if you
have an Ignite-UX server configured on your network and you
want to supply custom configurations during the installation.
• Select from one of the choices shown in User Interface Options:
— Guided Installation is recommended for basic installations
(where default parameters are sufficient) and provides tutorial
information and limited choices for inexperienced Ignite-UX
users. (Ignite-UX permits you to exit from Guided Installation.
You can restart the configuration using Advanced Installation
later by either selecting the
Cancel button or pressing C.)
— Advanced Installation is recommended if you want to fully
customize your system such as configuring multiple disks and
adjusting file system sizes. Use this mode to change VxVM
settings. You may also find it convenient to set system
parameters, network services, file-system characteristics, and
other configuration details. For more help on using the
Advanced
Installation
screens, refer to the Ignite-UX Administration Guide.
— No User Interface is recommended if you want to accept all the
default installation parameters and you do not need to verify the
configuration using the user interface.
The remaining sections take you through the Media only installation
option and the Guided Installation option.
