Client
Installations
The
client computer's network card must be set as the primary boot
device within the system BIOS. When the client computer boots, it
requests a network service boot from the remote installation server
on the network. After it is contacted, the RIS server prompts users
to press the F12 key to download the Client Installation wizard.
If you are using the remote RIS boot floppy disk, insert the disk
into the drive and boot the client computer. When the computer
boots, the user is requested to press F12 to initiate the network
service boot.
- Reboot the
client machine from either the remote floppy or the PXE boot
ROM. When prompted, press the F12 key to start the
download of the client installation wizard.
- Press
Enter at the welcome screen.
- Enter user
name. Press the Tab key twice. For this instruction set,
the password is left blank and the domain name should be
entered. Press Enter to continue.
- You will get
a warning message that all data on the client machine hard drive
will be deleted. To continue, press Enter .
- A computer
account and a global unique ID for this workstation are
displayed. Press Enter to begin Setup. The Windows 2000
Setup program begins.
- If prompted,
go through the Windows 2000 Professional Setup Wizard.
After
the installation is complete, the user is prompted to log on to the
network with an existing user account, password, and logon domain.
At this point, you have successfully configured and installed a
remote operating system using RIS.
