Configuration Of The Installed System - Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE SERVER 10 SP2 - INSTALLATION AND ADMINISTRATION Installation Manual

http://<IP of installed system>:5801/
Using X to Connect
When IPLing the installed system, make sure that the X server used for the first phase
of the installation is up and still available before booting from the DASD. YaST opens
on this X server to finish the installation. Complications may arise if the system is
booted up but unable to connect to the X server in a timely fashion.
Using SSH to Connect
IMPORTANT: IBM System z: Connecting from a Linux or UNIX System
Start SSH in an xterm. Other terminal emulators lack complete support for the
text-based interface of YaST.
A message in the 3270 terminal asks you to connect to the Linux system with an SSH
client. This message is easily missed, however, because it is mixed with kernel messages
and because the terminal process might quit before you become aware of the message.
Once the message appears, use SSH to log in to the Linux system as root. If the con-
nection is denied or times out, wait a few minutes then try again.
When the connection is established, execute the command
/usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.ssh. yast does not suffice in this case.
YaST then starts to complete the installation of the remaining packages and create an
initial system configuration.
3.14 Configuration of the Installed
The system is installed now but not configured for use. No users, hardware, or services
are configured, yet. If the configuration fails at one of the steps of this stage, it restarts
and continues from the last successful step.
