Remote System Installation
Remote System Installation allows you to start and set up the system using the software and configuration
information located on a network server by initiating the Preboot Execution Environment (PXE). The Remote
System Installation feature is usually used as a system setup and configuration tool, and can be used for
the following tasks:
●
Formatting a hard drive
●
Deploying a software image on one or more new PCs
●
Remotely updating the system BIOS in flash ROM
●
Configuring the system BIOS settings
To initiate Remote System Installation, press
F12
when the
F12 = Network Service Boot
message
appears in the lower-right corner of the HP logo screen when the computer is booting up. Follow the
instructions on the screen to continue the process. The default boot order is a BIOS configuration setting
that can be changed to always attempt to PXE boot.
