as described below. When Microsoft Windows is booted again, openSUSE 11.3
Installer is automatically uninstalled.
TIP: Installing openSUSE alongside Microsoft Windows
openSUSE can easily be installed alongside Microsoft Windows. Carry out the in-
stallation as described below—an existing Windows installation will automatically
be detected and a dual boot option will be installed. If Windows covers the whole
installation disk, the installation routine will make a proposal to shrink an existing
Windows partition in order to make room for the openSUSE. Please read Sec-
tion 1.10.1.1, Resizing a Windows Partition (page 15) prior to the installation
for detailed information.
1.3 The Installation Workow
The openSUSE installation is split into three main parts: preparation, installation,
and conguration. During the preparation phase you congure some basic parameters
such as language, time, desktop type, users, passwords, hard disk setup and instal-
lation scope. In the non-interactive installation phase the software is installed and
the system is prepared for the rst boot. Upon nishing the installation the machine
reboots into the newly installed system and starts the nal system conguration.
You can choose whether to do a fully automatic or a manual conguration. In this
stage, network and Internet access, as well as hardware components such as printers,
are set up.
1.4 System Start-Up for Installation
You can install openSUSE from local installation sources, such as the openSUSE CDs
or DVD, or from network source of an FTP, HTTP, NFS, or SMB server. Any of these
approaches requires physical access to the system to install as well as user interaction
during the installation. The installation procedure is basically the same regardless
of the installation source. Any exceptions are suciently highlighted in the following
workow description.
1.5 The Boot Screen
The boot screen displays a number of options for the installation procedure. Boot
from Hard Disk boots the installed system and is selected by default, because the
CD is often left in the drive. Select one of the other options with the arrow keys and
press [Enter] to boot it. The relevant options are:
Installation
The normal installation mode. All modern hardware functions are enabled. In case
the installation fails, see [F5]Kernel (page 9) for boot options that disable poten-
tially problematic functions.
