Using Windows 7 on the workstation blade

Installing Windows 7

The installation process partitions and formats the workstation blade hard drive. Because all files are deleted
from the hard drive during this process, be sure to archive all important files before beginning the installation.
You can install Windows® 7 with two methods:

Run the installation process using devices attached to the Local I/O Cable-A USB hub (with a keyboard,
mouse, and CD/DVD drive), and a monitor.

Run the installation process using iLO 2 virtual media from your local PC. This is the slower method, and
is susceptible to network issues.
