Figure 3.7: The linuxrc Installation Menu
‘Start LiveEval CD’ is only available if you booted a LiveEval CD. Down-
load ISO images from the FTP server (live-cd-<VERSION>) at ftp:
//ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/
Note
‘Start LiveEval CD’ is very useful for testing the compatibility of
a computer or laptop without installing the system on the hard
disk.
Note
To begin the installation, select ‘Start Installation or Update’ from the menu
and press

Enter . You are then prompted to select the installation source as
shown in Figure 3.8 on the next page. In most cases, you can leave this at
the preselected ‘CD-ROM’ item. However, other sources can be select for
installation and similarly for the rescue system (Figure 10.1 on page 257).
After pressing
