Setting Up and Using Your HP Visualize Linux Workstation
Starting and Stopping Your HP Visualize Linux Workstation
To initialize your software:
1. Turn on the display first, and then the HP V
ISUALIZE
Linux
Workstation.
When the Workstation is switched on, the Workstation performs a
Power-On-Self-Test (POST). Press
if you want to view the POST
details in the HP BIOS Summary Screen (see the section “The HP
BIOS Summary Screen and Setup Program” in the chapter “Technical
Information”).
If
an
error
is
detected
during
the
Power-On-Self-Test,
the
Workstation will automatically display the error. You may be
prompted to press
to start the Setup program to correct the error.
The HP Linux Setup Tool will then run. It allows you to enter
information. For example:
• The Boot Protocol, networking parameters, current date and time,
root password, etc.
2. While the Setup Toolis running, you can complete the Warranty
Registration card that came with this manual.
3. When you are finished entering information into the Setup Tool, click
OK and the Workstation will restart.
Creating Rescue Disk Set
It is very important that you create a rescue disk set for your preloaded
software and operating system, as soon as possible. HP recommends that
you use new diskettes for this purpose. To create these back-up diskettes,
follow instructions that appear in the HP Linux Setup and Recovery
Guide (HP Part Number A1297-90010) that was included with your
Workstation.
