Installing Using Jumpstart Network Installation

The system that you use as an installation server must have a CD/DVD drive, and it
must be part of the site's network and name service. If you use a name service, the
server must already be in a name service, such as NIS, NIS+, DNS, or LDAP. If you
do not use a name service, you must distribute information about this server by
following your site's policies.
Note – For basic instructions on setup and configuration for network installations,
