To prepare the bootstrap Installation System repository

1. If you have not started the Installation System, do so as described in Starting the Installation System.
2. On the Runtime Component System Not Active panel, select Setup a bootstrap version of RTCS.

    BMIPRTCS              Runtime Component System Not Active                      
    Command ===> _______________________________________________________________________
                                                                                   
    The Runtime Component System (RTCS) is not active on this system. The BMC      
    Software Installation System requires that RTCS be active. The data entered    
    while installing products is stored in a repository hosted by RTCS. If RTCS is 
    not installed you can choose to run a bootstrap version.                       
                                                                                   
                                                                                   
    Select one of the following actions:                                           
    __  1. RTCS was installed and has now been started                             
        2. Setup a bootstrap version of RTCS                                       
        3. Exit the installation system                                            
                                                                                   
                                                                                   
    Regardless of the action selected, the Installation System will terminate and  
    after RTCS is active, you will be able to access the Installation System.

3. On the RTCS Bootstrap Options panel, specify the requested information.
