Hi,

I have and HP machine, i want to reinstall its OS. One option i can do this is through the CD. Can some one tell me how i can do this through Ignite?

Startup the server, and stop it in the boot prompt and do this.

BOOT ADMIN> boot lan.nn.n.nn.n install
where: nn.n.nn.n is your server's IP address

Before you reinstall it you may want to make a new ignite image of the server. Then everything is spinding there is no way back :-).
