Set Up the Boot Media for a Local Installation
To set up the local boot
media, you must insert a storage device that contains the Windows Server OS
installation media into the server using one of the following options.
- If
the server is equipped with an optional DVD drive, insert the Windows Server
OS installation DVD into the DVD drive located on the front of the server;
otherwise, proceed to the next step.
- If your server does not have a DVD drive, insert an external USB DVD drive or a USB flash
drive that contains the Windows Server OS installation media into one of the external USB ports
located on the front and rear of the server.
