Procedure

1. From the RHEL boot menu on the target system, press the e key on your keyboard to edit the boot options.

2. Append the inst.rdp option to the end of the command line.

   You can also use the inst.rdp.username and inst.rdp.password boot options to set the RDP credentials. For example,

   inst.rdp inst.rdp.username=my_username inst.rdp.password=my_password

3. Press CTRL+X or F10 to start the installation. The target system initializes the installation program and starts the necessary services. When the system is ready, a message is displayed providing the IP address of the system.
4. Provide username and password details, if not provided earlier by using the boot options.
5. Open the RDP viewer on the remote system.
6. Enter the IP address into the RDP server field.
7. Click Connect.

8. Enter the RDP username and password and click OK.

   A new window opens with the RDP connection established, displaying the RHEL installation menu. From this window, you can install RHEL on the target system by using the graphical user interface.
