Installing Mac OS X Server

Installing the Software

Note: If you are installing Mac OS X Server on an external hard disk, make sure the SCSI ID
number of the disk is the number you plan to use after installation. If you change the disk’s
SCSI ID number after installation, you’ll need to use the System Disk application to reselect
the startup device. See “Using the System Disk Program to Select a Startup Disk” on page 38
for details.

To install Mac OS X Server software, follow these steps:

1

Insert the Mac OS X Server CD in your computer’s CD-ROM drive.

2

Restart the computer while holding down the C key.

Your computer starts up from the CD. Continue holding down the C key until you see the
Welcome to Mac OS message.

3

If necessary, open the Mac OS X Server Install folder on the CD, then double-click the Install
Mac OS X Server icon.

4

Select the language you want to use for the installation.
Note: If you purchased the English version of the product, most services will be available
only in English, even if you install the software using a different language.
