Use this procedure to set up for a remote installation.
Note - Using the CD-ROM or CD-ROM image option to install the OS significantly increases the time necessary to perform the installation as the content of the CD-ROM is accessed over the network. The installation duration depends on the network connectivity and traffic. This installation method also has a greater risk of issues due to transient network errors.
