Normally, the installation is performed from the inserted installation medium. Here,
select other sources, like FTP or NFS servers. If the installation is carried out in a

Press this key to tell the system that you have an optional disk with a driver update
for SUSE Linux Enterprise. With File, load drivers directly from CD before the
installation starts. If you select Yes, you are prompted to insert the update disk at
the appropriate point in the installation process. The default option is No—not to
load a driver update.
A few seconds after starting the installation, SUSE Linux Enterprise loads a minimal
Linux system to run the installation procedure. To see what is going on during the boot
process, press Esc to see the messages and copyright notices. At the end of the loading
process, the YaST installation program starts. After a few more seconds, the screen
should display the graphical installer. The actual installation of SUSE Linux Enterprise
begins at this point.
TIP: Installation without a Mouse
If the installer does not detect your mouse correctly, use Tab for navigation,
arrow keys to scroll, and Enter to confirm a selection.
3.4 Language
YaST and SUSE Linux Enterprise in general can be configured to use different languages
according to your needs. The language selected here is also used for the keyboard layout.
In addition, YaST uses the language setting to guess a time zone for the system clock.
These settings can be modified later along with the selection of secondary languages
to install on your system.
You can change the language later during installation in the Installation Summary, de-
