Special Installation Procedures
Figure 3.6: Entering Parameters for a Module
Note
If it turns out that no driver is included for your installation de-
vice (proprietary or parallel port CD-ROM drive, network card,
PCMCIA) among the standard modules, you may be able to use
one of the drivers of an extra module disk (to learn how to make
such a floppy, refer to Section 3.6 on page 129). To do so, scroll
down to the end of the menu then select ‘Other Modules’. linuxrc
then prompts you to insert the corresponding disk.
Note
3.1.5 Start Installation or System
After setting up hardware support via modules, proceed to ‘Start Installa-
tion or System’. From this menu, a number of procedures can be started:
‘Start Installation or Update’, ‘Boot Installed System’ (the root partition
must be known), ‘Start Rescue System’ (see Section 10.4 on page 255), and
‘Eject CD’.
