CREATING A BOOTABLE INSTALLATION
MEDIUM
After obtaining an ISO file that contains the software image from NVIDIA Enterprise
Support, create a bootable installation medium, such as a USB flash drive or DVD-ROM,
that contains the image.
Note: If you are restoring the software image remotely through the BMC, you do not
need a bootable installation medium and you can omit this task.
If you are creating a bootable USB flash drive, follow the instructions for the platform
that you are using:
● On a text-only Linux distribution, see Creating a Bootable USB Flash Drive by Using
the dd Command.
● On Windows, see Creating a Bootable USB Flash Drive by Using Akeo Rufus.
If you are creating a bootable DVD-ROM, you can use any of the methods described
in
