2.5 Monitoring the Installation
Process
There are several options for remotely monitoring the installation process. If the proper
boot options have been specied while booting for installation, either VNC or SSH can
be used to control the installation and system conguration from a remote workstation.
2.5.1 VNC Installation
Using any VNC viewer software, you can remotely control the installation of openSUSE
from virtually any operating system. This section introduces the setup using a VNC
viewer application or a Web browser.
2.5.1.1 Preparing for VNC Installation
All you need to do on the installation target to prepare for a VNC installation is to
provide the appropriate boot options at the initial boot for installation (see Section 2.4.2,
“Using Custom Boot Options” (page 66)). The target system boots into a text-based
environment and waits for a VNC client to connect to the installation program.
The installation program announces the IP address and display number needed to connect
for installation. If you have physical access to the target system, this information is
provided right after the system booted for installation. Enter this data when your VNC
client software prompts for it and provide your VNC password.
Because the installation target announces itself via OpenSLP, you can retrieve the address
information of the installation target via an SLP browser without the need for any
physical contact to the installation itself, provided your network setup and all machines
support OpenSLP:
1
Start the KDE le and Web browser Konqueror.
2
Enter service://yast.installation.suse in the location bar. The target
system then appears as an icon in the Konqueror screen. Clicking this icon launches
the KDE VNC viewer in which to perform the installation. Alternatively, run your
VNC viewer software with the IP address provided and add :1 at the end of the IP
address for the display the installation is running on.
