To install AwaniOS, you need to download the ISO file from Awanio Customer Portal Web. Once you download the ISO file, you have to copy the ISO into USB and make it bootable. These are the steps to create bootable USB from ISO file https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-make-a-bootable-usb-from-an-iso-in-linux

• Enter BIOS, and enable CPU VT and hyper-threading (HT).
• Enter the RAID controller and configure the RAID levels to provide data redundancy.
• Set USB drives as the first device to boot in the boot sequence.
• AwaniOS only supports UEFI boot mode. For this, you need to make sure your BIOS supports it.

After you complete the preceding configurations, reboot or power on the server, and enter the installation wizard. On the ISO installation page, the Start Install Awanio option is selected by default, and then the operating system starts to install, as shown below.
