= Creating the {op-system-first} image

[role="_abstract"]
The {product-title} installation program requires that a {op-system-first} image be present in the {rh-openstack-first} cluster. Retrieve the latest {op-system} image, then upload it using the {rh-openstack} CLI.

After you upload the image to {rh-openstack}, it is usable in the installation process.

.Prerequisites

* The {rh-openstack} CLI is installed.

[WARNING]
If the installation program finds multiple images with the same name, it chooses one of them at random. To avoid this behavior, create unique names for resources in {rh-openstack}.
+
[NOTE]
====
The {op-system} ISO image supports booting in both UEFI and legacy BIOS modes. Instances that boot from the image use legacy BIOS firmware by default.
====

After you upload the image to {rh-openstack}, it is usable in the installation process.
. Optional: If you use UEFI boot in your {rh-openstack} environment, you can set the `hw_firmware_type` property on the image by running the following command:
+
[source,terminal]
----
$ openstack image set --property hw_firmware_type=uefi rhcos
----

Replace `rhcos` with your image name if it differs from the example.
