2.2 Installing over the Network

An installation server is required to perform the installation by using a network source.
The procedure for installing this server is outlined in Section "Setting Up the Server
Holding the Installation Sources" (Chapter 4, Remote Installation, ↑Installation and
Administration).
If you have an SLP server, select SLP as the installation source in the first boot screen.
During the boot procedure, select which of the available installation sources to use.
If the CDs or DVDs are available in the network, use these as an installation source. In
this case, specify the parameter install=<URL> with suitable values at the boot
prompt. Find a more detailed description of this parameter in Section "Using Custom
Boot Options" (Chapter 4, Remote Installation, ↑Installation and Administration).

2.3 Controlling Installation Remotely

There are three options for controlling installations from a remote computer: installation
via SSH, installation over serial console, and installation via VNC. These possibilities
are described in the Architecture-Specific Information manual. Find this manual on the
first CD or DVD as a printable PDF in the /docu directory.
