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 Linux OS installation image into the server using one of the following options.

1. If the server is equipped with an optional DVD drive, insert the Linux OS installation DVD into the DVD drive located on the front of the server; otherwise, proceed to the next step.
2. If your server does not have a DVD drive, insert an external USB DVD drive or a USB flash drive that contains the Linux OS installation media into one of the external USB ports located on the front and rear of the server.

   Note -  For information about the location of the server's external USB ports, refer to Oracle X5-4 Server Feature Overview in Oracle Server X5-4 Installation Guide.
