To install from a network source (see
Section "Setting Up the Installation Source"
(page 31)), append manual to the kernel to install. For an installation over VNC,
append the parameters vnc=1 and vncpassword=password to install. Read
more about VNC in
Section 14.1.1, "Simple Remote Installation via VNC—Static
Network Configuration"
(page 190).
In LPAR mode, the partition to install must have the CD-ROM in its partition profile.
Booting from the Network Source
Select an ethernet device that has access to the installation source (6 in this example).
Additional Steps
Proceed as described in
Chapter 6, Installation with YaST
(page 89) to begin installing
the software with linuxrc and YaST.
3.2.3 Preparing an Installation on IBM JSxx
BladeCenter
This section describes the preparatory steps for the installation of SUSE® Linux Enter-
prise Server on JSxx Blades. It covers installation using the CD-ROM drive of the
BladeCenter and using the network.
Creating a Network Installation Source
Create a network installation source if SUSE Linux Enterprise Server should be installed
over a number of partitions. This provides the advantage that no CDs need to be changed
during installation. The same source can also be used for the concurrent installation of
various systems. Configuration of a network installation source is described in
Sec-
tion 14.2.1, "Setting Up an Installation Server Using YaST"
(page 198).
Hard Disk Storage Space
Ensure that enough hard disk storage space is available for the installation of SUSE
Linux Enterprise Server. It is recommended to use a dedicated hard disk.
