2.4 System Software Installation
Recent releases of operating systems from major vendors include setup programs
that load automatically and guide users through hard disk preparation and operating
system installation. The guidelines provided below will assist users in determining the
necessary steps for installing an operating system.
For software installation, an installed HDD is required. Software can be loaded on the
UTC-318 using either of the following methods:
2.4.1 Method 1: Ethernet
Download software to the HDD via the Ethernet port.
2.4.2 Method 2: External USB CD-ROM
If necessary, insert the operating system installation or setup disk into the system
disk drive.
The UTC-318 BIOS utility supports system bootup directly from the CD-ROM drive.
Users can also insert the system installation CD into the CD-ROM drive.
Power on or reset the system by pressing “Ctrl+Alt+Del”. UTC-318 will automatically
load the operating system from the disk or CD-ROM.
If presented with a setup or installation program’s opening screen, follow the
onscreen instructions. The setup program will guide users through preparing the hard
drive and installing the operating system. If presented with an operating system com -
mand prompt, such as A:\>, partition and format the hard drive before manually copy -
ing the operating system files to the hard drive. Refer to the operating system user
