System Overview
Powering Up Your System
Powering Up Your System
After you have connected the various parts of the computer—for details,
see the J5 Class and J7 Class Installation Sheet that came with your
computer— you are ready to power up the system. At this point, there
are two possibilities:
Your computer has been “ignited;” that is, the HP’s Instant Ignition
process has installed the operating system already. In this case, when
you power up the computer, you will be presented with a series of
questions asking you the machine’s hostname, IP address, subnet
mask, and other basic configuration questions (see next page for
details). When these are answered, the CDE login screen will appear.
Your computer has not been “ignited;” that is, the HP’s Instant
Ignition process has
not
installed the operating system already. In
this case, you will need to install the operating system from the CDs.
For details, see the CD Booklet included with the CDs.
Once the CDE login screen appears, and you can log in as
root
—initially,
there is no password. When you have logged in, you will be able to create
other
users’
accounts
and
do
whatever
other
configuration
and
installations you require to get the machine into its desired state. Use
the Help facility of SAM (the System Administration Manager) or see the
HP CDE Getting Started Guide
and
User’s Guide
for instructions on
typical tasks.
