2.1 Preparing to Install

Verify that you have one disk with the Novell
installation files, or download the installation ISO from http://download.novell.com to a
location of your choice and burn it to a DVD. The download is 5 GB. Download time depends on
your hardware.
If you are using a VMware* session instead of a physical server, make sure to designate the boot
sequence to boot from the CD-ROM.

2.2 Beginning the Installation

1 Insert the DVD into your chosen server.
2 Boot up the server. The installation splash screen then appears. Using the Down-arrow key,
select Installation, then press Enter.
3 The first page is the End User License Agreement (EULA). Read through the agreement and
click I Agree to advance to the next page.
4 After the initial files have been loaded onto the system, you are prompted to set up the initial
configuration of your server on the Installation Settings window. You now have the following
two options:
If you do not want to change any of the settings and choose to keep the defaults, just click
the Accept button in the lower right corner of the window. A Confirm Installation screen
appears; if you are satisfied with the default, click Install.
If you want to change any of the settings, click the Change button and select the setting
you want to modify. Repeat this task until all changes are complete. If you are satisfied
with your changes, click the Accept button in the lower right corner of the Installation
Settings main window. A Confirm Installation screen appears; if you are satisfied with
your changes, click Install.
IMPORTANT: Do not change the configurations on the Software settings. Doing so causes
your install to fail.
5 On the Network Configuration page, if you want to change any of the network settings, click
Change and select the setting you want to modify. If you do not want to make any changes,
click Next.
You are then presented with an IP address at the server prompt so you can move to the browser-
based portion of the installation and configuration. Make a note of the IP address; you need it to
access the Web site where you continue the installation. You have now completed the base
installation of the server.
