Uninstall existing OS

CAUTION To install OS10 on a switch running OS9 or another third-party OS, you must first uninstall the existing OS. The Uninstall option deletes the switch configuration and all disk partitions.

To uninstall OS9 or a third-party OS on a Dell EMC ONIE switch, boot up the switch and watch for the ONIE boot menu to display. Immediately use the Arrow keys to scroll the asterisk and select the ONIE: Uninstall OS option to avoid the switch booting to ONIE: Install OS by default.
