If the add-on product is available on removable media, the system automatically mounts the media and reads its contents. Add-on products may be delivered as a repository or as a set of RPM files. It is also possible to specify a URL directly. Check Download Repository Description Files to download the files describing the repository now. If unchecked, they will be downloaded once the installation starts. Depending on the product's content it may be necessary to accept additional license agreements.
It is also possible to configure add-on products later. Using add-on products on the installed system is described in Chapter 10, Installing Add-On Products. You can also add driver update repositories via the Add-On Products dialog. When invoking the network setup, YaST scans for available network cards. If more than one network card is found, you must choose the card to configure from the list. If an ethernet network adapter is not already connected, a warning will open.
Make sure the network cable is plugged in and choose Yes, Use It. Some networks require the use of a proxy server to access the Internet. Tick the check box Use Proxy for Accessing the Internet and enter the appropriate specifications. Click Accept to perform the network setup. The installation procedure will continue with the add-on products or repositories setup as described in Section 6.
In this dialog, select your region and time zone. Both are preselected according to the selected installation language. To change the preselected values, either use the map or the drop down lists for Region and Time Zone.
When using the map, point the cursor at the rough direction of your region and left-click to zoom. Now choose your country or region by left-clicking.
Right-click to return to the world map. If you run another operating system on your machine, such as Microsoft Windows, it is likely your system uses local time instead. If you only run Linux on your machine, set the hardware clock to UTC and have the switch from standard time to daylight saving time performed automatically.
The switch from standard time to daylight saving time and vice versa can only be performed automatically when the hardware clock CMOS clock is set to UTC. This also applies if you use automatic time synchronization with NTP, because automatic syncing will only be performed if the time difference between the hardware and system clock is less than 15 minutes.
Since a wrong system time can cause severe problems missed backups, dropped mail messages, mount failures on remote file systems, etc. If a network is already configured, you can configure time synchronization with an NTP server. When finished, click Accept to continue the installation. Since the operating system is not allowed to change time and date directly, the Change option is not available on IBM System z. The selected scenario affects the package selection.
On the last step before the real installation takes place, you can alter installation settings suggested by YaST and also review the settings you made so far.
Basic settings can be changed in the Overview tab, advanced options are available on the Experts tab. To modify the suggestions, either click Change and select the category to change or click on one of the headlines.
After configuring any of the items presented in these dialogs, you are always returned to the Installation Settings window, which is updated accordingly.
YaST then shows the original proposal again. Review and, if necessary, change the partition setup proposed by the system. Changing the partition setup either lets you partition a specific disk or, when choosing Custom Partitioning , apply your own partitioning scheme. Modifying the partition setup opens the Expert Partitioner described in Section The default partitioning scheme is based on Ext3 file system.
So if two or more minidisks are on the same physical disk, they all have the same ID. To avoid problems when mounting the minidisks, always mount them either "by path" or "by UUID". YaST proposes a boot configuration for your system. Other operating systems found on your computer, such as Microsoft Windows or other Linux installations, will automatically be detected and added to the boot loader. Normally, you can leave these settings unchanged. If you need a custom setup, modify the proposal for your system.
For information, see Section Click Software to start the pattern selection and modify the installation scope according to your needs. Select your pattern from the list and see a pattern description in the right part of the window. Each pattern contains a number of software packages needed for specific functions e.
Web and LAMP server or a print server. For a more detailed selection based on software packages to install, select Details to switch to the YaST Software Manager. You can also install additional software packages or remove software packages from your system at any later time with the YaST Software Manager.
For more information, refer to Chapter 9, Installing or Removing Software. Here you can change the system Language you defined in the first step of the installation. It is also possible to add additional languages. To adjust the system language settings, select Language. Select a language from the list. The primary language is used as the system language.
You can also adapt keyboard layout and time zone to the primary language if the current settings differ. Details lets you modify language settings for the user root , set UTF-8 support, or further specify the language e.
Choose secondary languages to be able to switch to one of these languages at any time without having to install additional packages. If you added a source for an add-on media earlier, it appears here.
Add, remove, or modify add-on products here, if needed. This is the same configuration dialog as discussed earlier in Section 6. To change the keyboard layout, select Keyboard Layout. By default, the layout corresponds to the language chosen for installation. Select the keyboard layout from the list. Use the Test field at the bottom of the dialog to check if you can enter special characters of that layout correctly.
Options to fine-tune various settings are available under Expert Mode. When finished, click Accept to return to the installation summary. Adjust time zone and clock settings here.
Provided a network is configured, you can also set up a Network Time Protocol NTP client that automatically synchronizes your computer with a time server. This is the same configuration as shown earlier in Section 6.
Normally, there should be no need to change anything here, but if necessary set the default runlevel with this dialog. Refer to Section This dialog presents all the hardware information YaST could obtain about your computer. When called, the hardware detection routine is started.
Depending on your system, this may take some time. Select any item in the list and click Details to see detailed information about the selected item. Use Save to File to save a detailed list to either the local file system or a floppy.
Using kdump, you can save a dump of the kernel in case of a crash to analyze what went wrong. Use this dialog to enable and configure kdump. Find detailed information at Chapter 18, kexec and kdump. After configuring all installation settings, click Install in the Installation Settings window to start the installation. Some software may require a license confirmation.
If your software selection includes such software, license confirmation dialogs are displayed. Click Accept to install the software package.
When not agreeing to the license, click I Disagree and the software package will not be installed. In the dialog that follows, confirm with Install again. The installation usually takes between 15 and 30 minutes, depending on the system performance and the selected software scope. After having prepared the hard disk and having saved and restored the user settings, the software installation starts.
After the software installation has completed, the basic system is set up. Next YaST boots into the new Linux system to start the system configuration. If you install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on a machine with existing Linux installations, the installation routine automatically imports the SSH host key with the most recent access time from an existing installation.
In cases where an automatic reboot is not possible, YaST will show a dialog box containing information about from which device to do an IPL. Accept the shutdown option and perform an IPL after the shutdown. The procedure varies according to the type of installation:.
Now start the loading process. Log in to the VM guest see Example 4. The parameter length is limited to eight characters. Longer numbers must be separated by spaces:. After IPLing the installed system, establish a connection with it to complete the installation.
The steps involved in this vary depending on the type of connection used at the outset. A message in the terminal asks you to connect to the Linux system using a VNC client. This message is easily missed, however, because it is mixed with kernel messages and the terminal process might quit before you become aware of the message. If nothing happens for five minutes, try to initiate a connection to the Linux system using a VNC viewer.
If you connect using a Java-capable browser, enter the complete URL, consisting of the IP address of the installed system along with the port number, in the following fashion:. When IPLing the installed system, make sure that the X server used for the first phase of the installation is up and still available before booting from the DASD. YaST opens on this X server to finish the installation. Complications may arise if the system is booted up but unable to connect to the X server in a timely fashion.
