1.3.5.2 Installing and/or boot an OS from a USB key 

 

To boot from a USB stick: 

1.  Create a Live USB stick using LiLi (available via 

http://www.linuxliveusb.com/

) or a 

similar tool. If you want to use a serial console, please make sure to configure the 
Linux  properly  (115200bd,  8N1,  no  handshake).  Enabling  serial  support  in  the 
Linux  bootloader  (grub  or  similar)  as  well  as  kernel  debug  messages  via  serial 
console may be valuable for potential troubleshooting. 

2.  Install the USB stick in one of the front ports. Make sure you have a serial console 

connection established via tools such as PuTTY as described earlier. 

3.  Power on the server. 

4.  The  boot  priority  in  the  SKY-8260S

’s  BIOS  is  giving  SATA  devices  higher  priority 

than USB devices. This is a safety measure to avoid that any end user can tamper 
the unit  when  installed  in  the field  with  a bootable USB  stick.  So,  in order  to  boot 
from the USB stick, you need to enter BIOS setup. 

 

In  BIOS  setup  menu,  move  to  the

 

“Boot”

  menu.  You  can  either  give  the  USB  stick 

higher boot priority over SATA devices. Alternatively, you can select the USB stick in the

 

“Boot  Override”

  Menu.  Boot  Override  will  modify  the  boot  order  for  a  single  boot 

process only and will automatically revert back to the original boot priority. After making 
these changes leave the Setup Menu via 

“Save&Exit”

. 

 

This will restart the server and it will boot from the USB stick. 
 
 

1.3.5.3 Installing an OS via network boot 

 

To install an OS via network, basically works the same way as booting an OS via USB 
stick described above. 
 
The main difference is that instead of a Linux live image you need to install a network 
installer  /  a  network  installable  image  on  the  USB  key.  Network  Installers  or  network 
installable iso images are available for most Linux distributions such as RedHat, Debian, 
Ubuntu and CentOS. For detailed information, please refer to the documentation of the 
related network installer and / or Linux distribution. 
 
Please  make  sure  you  configure  the  network  installer  image  properly  for  the  Ethernet 
port / device of the SKY-8260S that you plan to use for the installation. 
 
 
 
 

1.3.5.4 Booting an OS via network boot 

 

The SKY-8260S supports booting over network via PXE. 
 
To  boot  an  OS  via  network,  please  make  sure  the  following  BIOS  options  In  the 
Advanced: Network Stack Configuration Menu is configured properly:
