RP5470 - Some general questions.. and installation help?
I have a couple of questions about RP5470:
1) Is it possible to access it via KVM switch? I've noticed that there's no vga/keyboard/mouse connection.
2) Is it possible to install any free alternative to HP UX? (Like any recent linux distro)
3) Is it accessible and usable ONLY by terminal/putty etc? I had the idea of using VMware on it to install mssql on a windows vm.
Now onto the installation part, all the servers were formatted prior to shipping, so, there's no OS in it. Do I just insert the HP UX cd, reboot and watch on terminal for installation? Is there any website with a step by step guide?
Thanks in advance.

2) HP-UX is the only supported OS. Maybe there is a linux (debian?) that works.
3) see 2)
Hope this helps!

2. You might be able to trade them in on some integrity systems that you can install Linux distros on. HPUX is supported by many applications including oracle.
3. HPUX supports xwindows as well as terminal based logins.
