| <p>If you bought Pluto from a dealer, the software is already
| |
| | |
| installed and you can skip this section. Pluto will update itself so
| |
| | |
| it's always current.</p><p>If you're installing the
| |
| software
| |
| | |
| yourself,the great news is you only have to install the software on 1
| |
| | |
| PC--your Core.There's no software to install on the media directors
| |
| | |
| since the Core will give them a network boot image automatically. To
| |
| | |
| install the software, visit http://plutohome.com/index.php?section=get_pluto
| |
| and you will be given a link to a kick-start
| |
| CD.</p><p>Boot
| |
| | |
| the computer that will be your Core or Hybrid on this CD and follow
| |
| the
| |
| | |
| simple prompts--you can just accept the default responses normally.
| |
| You
| |
| | |
| will need an internet connection. Just sit back, relax and wait about
| |
| | |
| 45 minutes while Pluto does its thing. Be sure you complete the
| |
| | |
| installation of your Core/Hybrid before trying to boot the media
| |
| | |
| directors.</p><p>The kick start CD will install a web-site
| |
| on your Core
| |
| | |
| called "Pluto Admin". This is what you will use to configure Pluto in
| |
| | |
| the next step. The kick-start CD will also install all the various
| |
| | |
| versions of the Orbiter on your Core, including everything you need to
| |
| | |
| run the Orbiter on a mobile phone, web pad or PDA. The Corewill be
| |
| able
| |
| | |
| to detect Bluetooth mobile phones automatically and install the
| |
| Orbiter
| |
| | |
| software on them. For webpads and pda's, you will open up the Pluto
| |
| | |
| Admin website on the webpad or pda and click a link to the software
| |
| | |
| installer. But all that comes later. First you must move on to step 4,
| |
| | |
| "Tell Pluto about your home", once the Core is up and
| |
| running.</p>
