3 ONIE installation instructions This section describes the different methods to install ONIE on your switch. NOTE: After installing the networking operating software (NOS) and diagnostics operating system (DIAG-OS), if you boot into ONIE Install mode, ONIE assumes ownership of the system; ONIE Install mode is sticky. In this situation, ONIE stays in Install mode until NOS and DIAG-OS are successfully installed again. If you want to boot into ONIE for any reason other than installation, use Rescue mode or Update mode. NOTE: To access ONIE, use the RJ-45 console port.
