Summary

Test the OEM (for manufacturers) install procedures.

Procedure

Alternate CD

1. Boot using the "Text mode install for manufacturers" option.

   • At the installation bootloader, highlight Install (Ku|Edu|U|Xu)buntu (as the case may be)

   • Hit F4 for Modes

   • Select OEM install (for manufacturers)

2. You will not be asked for a username, although you will be asked for a password.
3. You should see instructions shortly before rebooting; in case you miss them, they say:

   • When you boot into the new system, you will be able to log in as the 'oem' user with the password you selected earlier; this user also has administrative privileges using 'sudo'. You will then be able to make any additional modifications you require to the system.

   • Once the system is configured to your satisfaction, run 'sudo oem-config-prepare'. This will cause the system to delete the temporary 'oem' user and ask the end user various configuration questions the next time it boots.

4. After rebooting you should see a normal Ubuntu desktop.

5. Install one or two additional applications and click the oem-config-prepare icon on the desktop.

6. Reboot and confirm that the new user setup procedure appears.
7. Confirm that the applications you installed are now available.
