I wasn't able to use it. Just getting "command not found". That said, I think the issue is something different. The error message I ended up getting never displays on the monitor, only the serial cable.
When attempting to install the OS, I get the following error after the reboot.

At this point I wait for the Debian installer (in the USB at the back of the device) to show up, and then select "Expert Installation". After that it prints that a SIGTERM is received, and it spits out the following.

What is this about?
The box consists of:
- Talos™ II Mainboard (Board Only)
- 2U Heatsink Assembly for POWER9 CPUs
- LSI 9300-8i 8-port Internal SAS 3.0 HBA
- M393A4K40BB2-CTD - Samsung 1x 32GB DDR4-2666 RDIMM PC4-21300V-R Dual Rank x4 Module (x8 = 256GB Memory)
- Supermicro CSE-836BE1C-R1K03B Server Chassis 3U Rackmount
- 3TB SAS3 drives (x16)
From the boot sequence, I can see it detects the SAS3 hard disks as well as the memory.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I can't find much on the internet about the error and why it may occur. And I can't find any documentation of commands to run when the initial IPL is complete but before attempting to install the operating system. Is there any? Where can I learn more about
I did create a ticket (#367172) with support, but given that they usually take weeks to respond so I don't have much faith that I'll have this resolved anytime soon through that channel.
