To edit a partition, select the Edit button or double-click on the existing partition.
Note
If the partition already exists on your hard disk, you can only change the partition's mount point. To
make any other changes, you must delete the partition and recreate it.

If you do not have a network device this screen is not shown. Skip ahead to Section 2.14 Firewall
Configuration.
Figure 2-10. Network Configuration
The installation program automatically detects any network devices you have and display them in the
Network Devices list.
Once you have selected a network device, click Edit. From the Edit Interface pop-up screen, you can
choose to configure the IP address and Netmask of the device via DHCP (or manually if DHCP is not
selected) and you can choose to activate the device at boot time. If you select Activate on boot, your
network interface is started when you boot. If you do not have DHCP client access or you are unsure
what to provide here, please contact your network administrator.
Note
DHCP is not available for automatic configuration of CTC/Escon devices. Point-to-Point addresses
are used to configure connections for these devices.
