Before you install an OS
After powering on the S5148F-ON switch, it goes through a power-on self-test (POST).
POST runs every time the switch is initialized and checks the hardware components to determine if the switch is fully
operational before booting. After POST, the switch uses the Grub bootloader.
To select an entry, use the up and down arrow keys. Press
Enter
to select an OS or enter
e
to edit the commands before
booting. Enter
c
for a command line. The selected entry runs automatically in the operating system.
Grub bootloader example
GNU GRUB version 2.02~beta2+e4a1fe391
