customer wants. The drivers required for this, are already installed and the operating system
will be enabled by entering the licence information.

reformatted, the operating system can be reinstalled via the existing
interfaces.

2. Restart the device and press the ESC key to enter the boot menu.
3. Insert an operating system CD into the external drive.
4. Select booting from the external drive in the boot menu and start.
5. Install the operating system and set the basic data.
6. For touch screen devices, the touch screen driver and soft keyboard should be installed for
full function.
Installation of the operating system via PXE
Alternatively, the operating system can also be installed over the network using the PXE
functionality (PXE = Preboot Execution Environment). To do this, the corresponding BootROM
extension must first be activated in the BIOS and then selected in the boot menu.
The further procedure depends on the network environment and the operating system to be
installed.
