# Installation
## Minimal HW/VM Requirements
- 4GB RAM
- 33GB Disk
## Network Installation
The machine you want to install needs to be [registered in `sysdb`](../../deployment/basic_installation.md).
### Installation with UEFI
This is the default (and only really supported) installation mode - No manual steps are needed!
__NOTE:__ After the installation the boot order will be changed to localboot again! So if you reinstall make sure that you re-set the bootorder via the efi menu or the commandline: https://linux.die.net/man/8/efibootmgr
```
[root@lx-test-02 ~]# efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 0004
BootOrder: 0004,0002,0000,0001,0003
Boot0000* EFI Virtual disk (0.0)
Boot0001* EFI VMware Virtual SATA CDROM Drive (0.0)
Boot0002* EFI Network
Boot0003* EFI Internal Shell (Unsupported option)
Boot0004* Red Hat Enterprise Linux
[root@lx-test-02 ~]# efibootmgr --bootorder 2,4,0,1,3
```
(there is no need to have the leading 000 )
### Installation with Legacy BIOS
Start the machine and select network boot (if not already the default), then you get following menu, where the default depends on the `sysdb` configuration, but you may override it manualy:
