Note: This mini-tutorial was written as a compendium to the Anvil! m2 Tutorial.

This tutorial will show you how to boot a Fujitsu server off of a PXE server, as is often done when using a Striker dashboard as an install target.

Enter the BIOS

Note: There may be slight variations in the appearance and layout of your BIOS, though you should have no trouble finding what you need.

When you first power on a Fujitsu Primergy server, it will take a minute or so for anything to show on the screen. This is normal, particularly after AC was disconnected.

When it does show the first screen, you will see a prompt to press <F2> to enter the BIOS.

Press <F2> and then wait.

The machine will continue to boot, scanning the RAID controller in the process. Once done, it will enter the BIOS scree.
