BIOS messages appear on the console.
After a delay, a menu offers a selection of boot devices (see the following example).
To boot from a physical CD/DVD or from an ISO image, select CD/DVD.
Control passes to the OS installation program on the media.

Note - If you already have an operating system besides Linux installed (for example, the Solaris OS), it will appear as a partition during the installation process. If you choose to install Oracle Linux on that partition, it will overwrite the OS. If you wish to preserve the partition, you must install Oracle Linux on a different partition.
