2.5.1.2 Connecting to the Installation Program
Basically, there are two ways to connect to a VNC server (the installation target in this
case). You can either start an independent VNC viewer application on any operating
system or connect using a Java-enabled Web browser.
Using VNC, you can control the installation of a Linux system from any other operating
system, including other Linux avors, Windows, or Mac OS.
On a Linux machine, make sure that the package tightvnc is installed. On a Windows
machine, install the Windows port of this application, which can be obtained at the
TightVNC home page (http://www.tightvnc.com/download.html).
To connect to the installation program running on the target machine, proceed as follows:
1
Start the VNC viewer.
2
Enter the IP address and display number of the installation target as provided by the
SLP browser or the installation program itself:
ip_address:display_number
A window opens on your desktop displaying the YaST screens as in a normal local
installation.
Using a Web browser to connect to the installation program makes you totally indepen-
dent of any VNC software or the underlying operating system. As long as the browser
application has Java support enabled, you can use any browser (Firefox, Internet Ex-
plorer, Konqueror, Opera, etc.) to perform the installation of your Linux system.
To perform a VNC installation, proceed as follows:
1
Launch your preferred Web browser.
2
Enter the following at the address prompt:
http://ip_address_of_target:5801
3
Enter your VNC password when prompted to do so. The browser window now dis-
plays the YaST screens as in a normal local installation.
