In order to force the server to boot off of our flash key, we need to clean the drive. Next, it is important to remove any partitions from the system drive because the MediaSmart Servers are configured to boot off of that hard drive if it has a bootable OS.

It’s important to setup the unattended “cfg.ini” file if you are performing the install without the benefit of a debug board that provides video and keyboard functionality to your MediaSmart Server. Pre-Installation Setup First, you’ll need to follow our guide on creating an unattended Vail Installer on a USB Flash Key. Be sure that you have backups of your data, and only store on Vail data that you know is backed up elsewhere. Most importantly, be aware that this is a Beta Release, and as such you should not use the Beta as your only form of backup of your important files.
If the MediaSmart Server is your only or primary Home server, I’d recommend that you instead use a spare 64-bit PC or purchase a low-cost test server to use. While it is possible to install and run Vail on any MediaSmart Server, be aware that each model has its own unique requirements in order to successfully install. Now that Windows Home Server Codename “Vail” has been released to public beta, I’m sure there are several of you that would like to install the beta operating system onto the MediaSmart Server that you already own.
