Begin Installation

NST 20 Begin Hard Disk Install

Once you begin the installation, you will see a progress bar indicating the the hard disk installation is underway. We have noticed that this progress bar is not very smooth, it tends to jump to about the half way point rather quickly and then stay there for a long period of time - eventually it should complete.

Completing the Installation

Eventually the hard disk installation will complete and you will see the following.

NST 20 Hard Disk Install Done

Press the Quit button to exit the installer. Unfortunately, if you launched the graphical installer from the command line or from a direct boot, it may not cleanly terminate. If you find yourself looking at a black screen, you can turn the power off to the system (this seems to work OK). Alternatively, if you would prefer to shut down the system cleanly, press the Control+Alt+F2 key combination to switch to a console login screen.

Log in as the root user and then shutdown the system (shown below using the poweroff command).
