Negotiate the order of installation with your IBM support, because it might be necessary
to activate the VM APARs before installing the new MicroCode levels.
Software
To install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server via non-Linux–based NFS or FTP, you might
experience problems with NFS or FTP server software. Especially the Windows standard
FTP server can cause errors, so installing via SMB on these machines is generally rec-
ommended.
To connect to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation system, one of the following
methods is required:
SSH with Terminal Emulation (xterm compatible)
SSH is a standard Unix tool that should be present on any Unix or Linux system.
For Windows, there is an SSH client called Putty. It is free to use and is available
from http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/.
VNC Client
For Linux, a VNC client called vncviewer is included in SUSE Linux Enterprise
Server as part of the tightvnc package. For Windows, tightvnc is also available.
Download it from http://www.tightvnc.com/. Alternatively, use the VNC
Java client and a Java-enabled Web browser.
X Server
Find a suitable X server implementation on any Linux or Unix workstation. There
are many commercial X Window System environments for Windows and Macintosh.
Some of them can be downloaded as free trial versions. A trial version of the Mocha
X Server from MochaSoft can be obtained at
freeware/x11.htm.
