installation— in this case the existing network conguration is used). Choose Yes, Run
the Network Setup and proceed as described in Section 1.7.1.1, “Network Set-
up” (page 16). If the add-on product is available locally, select No, Skip the Network
Setup.
Click Next and specify the product source. Source types available are CD, DVD, Hard
Disk, USB Mass Storage, a Local Directory or a Local ISO Image (if no network was
congured). If the add-on product is available on removable media, the system automat-
ically mounts the media and reads its contents. If the add-on product is available on
hard disk, choose Hard Disk to install from an unmounted hard drive, or Local Direc-
tory/Local ISO Image to install from the local le system. Add-on products may be
delivered as a repository or as a set of rpm les. In the latter case, check Plain RPM
Directory. Whenever a network is available, you can choose from additional remote
sources such as HTTP, SLP, FTP, etc. It is also possible to specify a URL directly.
Check Download Repository Description Files to download the les describing the
repository now. If unchecked, they will be downloaded once the installation starts.
Proceed with Next and insert a CD or DVD if required. Depending on the product's
content it may be necessary to accept additional license agreements.
It is also possible to congure add-on products later. Using add-on products on the in-
stalled system is described in Chapter 8, Installing Add-On Products (↑Start-Up).
1.7.1.1 Network Setup
When invoking the network setup, YaST scans for available network cards. If more
than one network card is found, you must choose the card to congure from the list.
If an ethernet network adapter is not already connected, a warning will open. Make
sure the network cable is plugged in and choose Yes, Use It. If your network is equipped
with a DHCP server, choose Automatic Address Setup (via DHCP). To manually set
up the network choose Static Address Setup and specify IP Address, Netmask, Default
Gateway IP, and the DNS Server IP.
Some networks require the use of a proxy server to access the Internet. Tick the check
box Use Proxy for Accessing the Internet and enter the appropriate specications. Click
Accept to perform the network setup. The installation procedure will continue with the
add-on products or repositories setup as described in Section 1.7.1, “Add-On Prod-
ucts” (page 15).
