SLED 10.0 Installation
There is not DVD-RW driver to burn the DVD image downloaded from internet. This article introduces how to install SLED10.0 by network.
NFS server/Image directory: 192.168.3.246:/x86/suse.iso
Target machine: AMD x86-64 platform, it has been installed CentOS5.5.
First, log on CentOS5.5 system, and mount the suse.iso to its local directory:
# mount -o loop suse.iso /c
# cd /c/boot/x86-64/loader
Copy the following two files to /boot:
# cp linux /boot
# cp initrd /boot
Modify “/etc/grub.conf”, append the below lines:
…
title SuSE
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/linux
initrd /boot/initrd
Reboot the system with suse kernel, and load the network modulars. In this case, “xforce-series” modulars must be loaded. The left steps are very similar to RHEL: configure local IP, identify the NFS path.Note, the NFS path should be full path including “.iso” name, for example, “/vm/suse.iso”, while RHEL only need NFS share path, e.g.”/vm”.
This machine will be used for compiling the source code.
