This assumes a clean install. If you are upgrading, there should be an upgrade choice in step 6.

1. Put in the CD or tape
2. Shut down the system, power off, turn it back on.
3. Stop the boot process by hitting ESC when prompted.
4. Put in theboot path for the device with the boot media. This will be different for different machines.
5. Boot from the path you just entered
6. You will get a menu. Select "Install HP-UX"
7. If you are on a network, enter "Y" to the Enable Networking question, and select your LAN interface and network information.
8. Select the system root disk
9. Typically, select a whole-system configuration. Depending on your disk size, you may want to follow other options.
10. View/modify the configuration until you are happy with it.
11. Select System Configuration (use tab and arrow keys to navigate). Set whatever options you need.
12. Typically answer "no" to the question "Interact with SD-UX swinstall"
13. At this point the system will load a mini-system. If you are using tape, insert the Core tape. If you are using a CD, leave it in. The system then loads the OS and reboots.
14. Enter system configuration when prompted.
15. Login.

To change system configuration after the initial system load, use the "sam" program. Patches and additional programs are loaded with the "swinstall" program.

Good luck.
