Installing the HP-UX Operating System
The
information in
this
chapter
assumes you read
Chapter
1,
and
have
met
the
system requirements.
Beginning
the
installation implies compliance with licensing requirelnents. You
should have read
the
HP
Software Product License
Agreement
and
Limited
Warranty
and
any
other
licensing requirements included with your system
and
software.
Here is a brief overview of
the
installation process:
•
During
the
installation process, you work
through
a series of menus
that
provide options
or
ask questions. To help you avoid problems,
the
steps
in
this
chapter
recommend certain options
and
decisions.
•
After
the
installation, complete
tasks
such as adding users, configuring
the
printers,
and
setting
up
networking.
• A typical installation takes 4
to
6 hours. For most of
this
time,
the
system
loads filesets. During these times, you
can
leave
the
system
unattended
(except for changing
tapes).
Go
on
to
Step
