6.5 System Start-Up for Installation

You can install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server from local installation sources, such as
the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server CDs or DVD, or from network source of an FTP,
HTTP, NFS, or SMB server. Any of these approaches requires physical access to the
system to install and user interaction during the installation. The installation procedure
is basically the same regardless of the installation source. Any exceptions are sufficiently
highlighted in the following workflow description. For a description on how to perform
non-interactive, automated installations, refer to
(page 283).

6.6 The Boot Screen

The boot screen displays a number of options for the installation procedure. Boot from
Hard Disk boots the installed system and is selected default, because the CD is often
left in the drive. Select one of the other options with the arrow keys and press Enter to
boot it. The relevant options are:
Installation
The normal installation mode. All modern hardware functions are enabled. In case
the installation fails, see
tially problematic functions.
Repair Installed System
Boots into the graphical repair system. More information on repairing an installed
system is available in Section "Recovering a Corrupted System" (Chapter 7,
Common Problems and Their Solutions, ↑System Analysis and Tuning Guide).
Rescue System
Starts a minimal Linux system without a graphical user interface. For more infor-
mation, see Section "Using the Rescue System" (Chapter 7, Common Problems
and Their Solutions, ↑System Analysis and Tuning Guide).
