1.2 Enhanced Auto Installer Package
The Enhanced Auto Installer package can be used for installing an Ubuntu* operating system image and
all required SW stacks (refer to Table 2). This auto-installation procedure only supports booting in Unified
Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) mode.
The Best Known Configuration (BKC) auto-installer package has two parts:
•The OS part contains a link to an International Standards Organization (ISO) disk image file for
downloading OS files:

ubuntu-16.04.3-server-amd64.iso
•The SW package includes firmware, drivers, utilities, and some configuration scripts. This package
will be updated in every BKC cycle.
Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor Platform Auto-Installer for Ubuntu* v16.04.3 (Document Number
596273) includes instructions to create an Ubuntu 16.04.3 installation with auto scripts that pull
correct versions of software stacks and preload the specific drivers and firmware on the system to
