Before you install an OS
After powering on the Z9100-ON system, 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 system 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.
Example of the Grub bootloader
GNU GRUB version 2.02~beta2+e4a1fe391
