Chapter 4. Installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 23

Figure 4-6. HTTP Setup Dialog

Next, the Welcome dialog appears.

Tip

You can save disk space by using the ISO images you have already copied to the server. To accom-

plish this, install Red Hat Enterprise Linux using ISO images without copying them into a single tree

by loopback mounting them. For each ISO image:

mkdir discX

mount -o loop example-1.iso discX

4.11. Welcome to Red Hat Enterprise Linux

The Welcome screen does not prompt you for any input. Read over the help text in the left panel for

additional instructions and information on where to register your Red Hat Enterprise Linux product.

Notice the Hide Help button at the bottom left corner of the screen. The help screen is open by default.

To minimize the help text, click on Hide Help.

Click on the Next button to continue.

4.12. Language Selection

Using your mouse, select a language to use for the installation (refer to Figure 4-7).

Selecting the appropriate language also helps target your time zone conﬁguration later in the installa-

tion. The installation program tries to deﬁne the appropriate time zone based on what you specify on

this screen.
