The HP Installer Kit for Linux helps users install certified versions of RHEL or SLED on HP
workstations. It is available as an operating system option on all HP workstations. The kit:
●
Contains tested drivers that augment and/or replace those found in RHEL or SLED to enable
proper use and behavior on HP workstations.

Does not include Linux operating system, which must be purchased separately from Red Hat or
SUSE. To view supported configurations and operating systems, go to
