Remote System Installation
Remote System Installation allows you to start and set up the system using the software and
configuration information located on a network server by initiating the Preboot Execution Environment
(PXE). The Remote System Installation feature is usually used as a system setup and configuration tool
and can be used for the following tasks:
●
Formatting a hard drive
●
Deploying a software image on one or more new PCs
●
Remotely updating the system BIOS in flash ROM (
Remote ROM Flash on page 45)
NOTE: There are facilities to flash the system BIOS from within the Microsoft Windows operating
system.
●
Configuring the system BIOS settings
To initiate Remote System Installation, press F12 when the F12 = Network Service Boot message
appears in the lower-right corner of the HP logo screen when the computer is booting up. Follow the
instructions on the screen to continue the process. The default boot order is a BIOS configuration setting
that can be changed to always attempt to PXE boot.
