Your installation server is now fully congured and ready for service. It is automat-
ically started every time the system is started. No further intervention is required.
You only need to congure and start this service correctly by hand if you have deac-
tivated the automatic conguration of the selected network service with YaST as an
initial step.
To deactivate a repository, select the repository to remove then select Delete. The in-
stallation data are removed from the system. To deactivate the network service, use the
respective YaST module.
If your installation server needs to provide the installation data for more than one
product of the product version, start the YaST installation server module and select Add
in the overview of existing repositories to congure the new repository.
2.2.2 Setting Up an NFS Repository
Manually
Setting up an NFS source for installation is basically done in two steps. In the rst step,
create the directory structure holding the installation data and copy the installation
media over to this structure. Second, export the directory holding the installation data
to the network.
To create a directory to hold the installation data, proceed as follows:
1
Log in as root.
2
Create a directory that will later hold all installation data and change into this direc-
tory. For example:
mkdir install/product/productversion
cd install/product/productversion
Replace product with an abbreviation of the product name and productversion
with a string that contains the product name and version.

For each DVD contained in the media kit execute the following commands:

Copy the entire content of the installation DVD into the installation server
directory:
