F2 Language
Select the display language for the installation. The default language is English.
F3 Video Mode
Select various graphical display modes for the installation. Select Text Mode if the
graphical installation causes problems.
F4 Source
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
network with an SLP server, select one of the installation sources available on the
server with this option. Find information about SLP in Chapter 31, SLP Services
in the Network (page 605).
F5 Driver
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.
After starting the installation, SUSE Linux Enterprise loads and configures a minimal
Linux system to run the installation procedure. To view the boot messages and copyright
notices during this process, press Esc . On completion of this process, the YaST installa-
tion program starts and displays the graphical installer.
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.
3.5.1 Providing Data to Access a SMT Server
If your network provides a SMT server to provide a local update source, you need to
equip the client with the server's URL. Client and server communicate solely via HTTPS
protocol, therefore you also need to enter a path to the server's certificate if the certificate
was not issued by a certificate authority. This information has to be entered at the boot
prompt.
