linuxrc loads the profile containing the boot parameters instead of the traditional
info
file. The
install:
parameter points to the location of the installation sources.
vnc
and
vncpassword
indicate the use of VNC for installation monitoring. The
autoyast
parameter tells linuxrc to treat
info
as an AutoYaST profile.
21.1.6 Initiating and Monitoring the
Autoinstallation
After you have provided all the infrastructure mentioned above (profile, installation
source, and
info
file), you can go ahead and start the autoinstallation. Depending on
the scenario chosen for booting and monitoring the process, physical interaction with
the client may be needed:
• If the client system boots from any kind of physical media, either product media
or custom CDs, you need to insert these into the client's drives.
• If the client is not switched on via Wake on LAN, you need to at least switch on
the client machine.
• If you have not opted for remote controlled autoinstallation, the graphical feedback
from AutoYaST is sent to the client's attached monitor or, if you use a headless
client, to a serial console.
To enable remote controlled autoinstallation, use the VNC or SSH parameters described
in
Section 21.1.5, “Creating the
info
File” (page 293) and connect to the client from
another machine as described in Section 14.5, “Monitoring the Installation Process”
(page 222).
