Setting up Red Hat Enterprise Linux (HP Workstations only) HP offers an HP Installer Kit for Linux (HPIKL) to supplement Red Hat box sets and help HP Linux customers customize their system image. The HPIKL contains the HP driver CD and device drivers to successfully setup up the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) operating system, The HP Installer Kit for Linux CDs are currently available for download at http://www.hp.com/support/workstation_swdrivers. Installing with the HP Driver CD To install the HP driver CD, see "Installing with the HP Installer Kit for Linux" in the HP Workstations for Linux manual at http://www.hp.com/support/ workstation_manuals. Installing and Customizing Red Hat-enabled Workstations Linux-enabled workstations require the HP Installer Kit and the purchase of a Red Hat Enterprise Linux box set. The Installer kit includes the HP CDs necessary to complete the installation of all versions of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux box set that have been qualified to work on an HP workstation. To use the drivers in the HP Installer kit for Linux other than RHEL, you must manually extract the drivers from the HP Driver CD and install them. HP does not test the installation of these drivers on other Linux distributions nor does HP support this operation.
