How long does it take RedHat to recognize media?
RedHat takes about 15 seconds to recognize the inserttion of USB and DVD media.
How do I power on the system?

The beep comes 5 seconds after pressing reset and this assumes the rear power switch and front power (LED) are already switched on.

You must run the VMWare player with the SC072 profile to bring up a virtual console.
