- iDrac prefers DHCP if available, the default IP address for IDRAC is 192.168.0.120

## Installing XCP-NG
|
|
I do not have a monitor with VGA display output, and you need an iDrac enterprise to install an OS through iDrac, so I'm installing with an unattended installer via an [answer file](https://xcp-ng.org/docs/answerfile.html#answer-file-values).
|
|
- I had trouble mounting the .iso file in macos, so I ended up extracting it with
|
|
```
|
|
7zz x -tiso -y xcp-ng-8.2.1.iso -oxcp-ng-8.2.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `install.img` extraction instructions were a bit hard for me to understand, here's what I figured out.
|
|
- `iso/` is the directory you extracted the ISO into
|
|
- You make the `install` directory in the `iso` dir.
|
|
The ISO packing instructions are *super* dated, you'll want `xorrisofs` instead of whatever they
|
|
I never got the unattended install to work, I believe it's because I was creating the ISO on MacOS
