7 Installing the Operating System Important: 1. The operating system in the blade server must provide USB support for the blade server to recognize and use the keyboard, mouse, and removable-media drives. The Intel® Blade Server Chassis SBCE uses USB for internal communication with these devices. 2. Some operating systems enable you to select the type of mouse that is being used. If you are offered this choice, select USB instead of PS/2. Although the mouse might be a PS/2-style device, communication with the mouse is through an internal USB bus in the SBCE unit; therefore, the operating system in the blade server must recognize the mouse as a USB device.

Installing the Operating System
Important:
1.
The operating system in the blade server must provide USB support for the blade
server to recognize and use the keyboard, mouse, and removable-media drives. The
Intel
®
Blade Server Chassis SBCE uses USB for internal communication with these
devices.
2.
Some operating systems enable you to select the type of mouse that is being used. If
you are offered this choice, select USB instead of PS/2. Although the mouse might be a
PS/2-style device, communication with the mouse is through an internal USB bus in
the SBCE unit; therefore, the operating system in the blade server must recognize the
mouse as a USB device.
