4.5.2 SSH Installation
Using SSH, you can remotely control the installation of your Linux machine using any
SSH client software.
Preparing for SSH Installation
Apart from installing the appropriate software package (OpenSSH for Linux and PuTTY
for Windows), you just need to pass the appropriate boot options to enable SSH for
installation. See Section 4.4.3, "Using Custom Boot Options"
OpenSSH is installed by default on any SUSE Linux–based operating system.
Connecting to the Installation Program
1 Retrieve the installation target's IP address. If you have physical access to the
target machine, just take the IP address the installation routine provides at the
console after the initial boot. Otherwise take the IP address that has been assigned
to this particular host in the DHCP server configuration.
2 At a command line, enter the following command:
ssh -X root@ip_address_of_target
Replace ip_address_of_target with the actual IP address of the installation
target.
3 When prompted for a username, enter root.
