Chapter 5. Installing the operating system
Use these instructions to install the operating system on the blade server.
To install the operating system on a blade server, you can use any of the following methods:
• Use the
ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD to install a supported MicrosoftWindows operating system.
• Use Remote Deployment Manager (RDM) Version 4.20 (or later) to install a supported operating system. To
determine whether RDM supports an operating system, see http://www.ibm.com/systems/management/

Important:
The operating system in the blade server must provide USB support for the blade server to
