Installing Software without the Wizard

To install the HMC software for the first time without using the Guided Setup wizard:

  1. Obtain the Product CDs.

  2. Reboot your HMC with the new CD inserted in the DVD-RAM drive.

  3. Monitor the reboot process carefully! If the hardware discovery utility starts during the reboot, you MUST select all defaults; otherwise, you will not be able to use your keyboard.

  4. When asked to perform an Install/Recovery or Upgrade, select Install/Recovery (F8).

 
 
  1. Select F1 on the next screen to confirm.

  2. Remove the CD from the DVD Ram drive and hit Enter when the install has completed.

  3. If you see a screen asking you for Keyboard configuration, select option 2.

  4. You will see a panel prompting you for local change. Choose the second option, and click OK.

  5. Now you will see a graphical login prompt.

  6. Log in as user hscroot, password abc123. This is the user ID/password combination that the HMC is shipped with.

  7. Change the predefined user ID and password immediately.
