How to install the MK.IO Beam ISO

If the MK.IO Beam server and software software are purchased separately, the MK.IO Beam software will need to be installed onto the server. The MK.IO Beam software is distributed in the form of an ISO image.

Boot Configuration

• Copy the MK.IO Beam ISO onto a USB stick.
• Insert the USB stick containing the ISO into a USB port on the server.
• Boot into the BIOS. In the System BIOS menu, configure the server to boot from USB. The exact steps for this will vary between different types of server.

Installation

• When first booting to the MK.IO Beam ISO, you will see a screen which shows two options, Start MediaKind Field Service 2.x and Troubleshooting. Select Start MediaKind Field Service 2.x and press the Return key.
• A dialog will be shown stating that no existing configuration has been found. Wait for 5 seconds and the installation will continue.
• When prompted to install the bundle, click OK to continue the installation. A progress screen will be shown. This process can take 20 minutes or more and the progress bar will sit at 0% for several minutes. Once this process has completed, the server will reboot.
