Uninstalling the Lenovo Network OS
If you wish to run another network operating system (NOS), you can uninstall the
Lenovo Network OS
by using the ONIE Uninstall mode. For more details, see

Notes:
If the switch does not have ONIE installed, you must first install a ONIE FoD
license key and then set up the software on the networking device. For more
details, see

If you are connected to the switch through the mini-USB serial console port,
once you have uninstalled the
Lenovo Network OS
you must configure the default
baud rate from 9,600 bps to 115,200 bps.
Once you have uninstalled the
Lenovo Network OS
from the network device, see
“Using ONIE without Lenovo Network OS” on page 21
