Prepare for a scripted installation:

•	Set the PXE boot manually for older devices.

•	Verify that remote site networks do not require adjustments.

•	Note that each device model requires an individualized installation to accommodate driver compatibility.

•	Copy, then modify the scripted installation to specify the hard drive size if the same device models have different-size hard drives.
