Installing Novell Linux Desktop 9

 < Day Day Up > 

You may need to change your BIOS settings to boot directly from a DVD drive. If you are not sure if you can boot from a DVD, you should start or reboot your computer and go into the computer's BIOS setup utility. Pressing the DEL (Delete) or the F2 key usually accesses this utility while the computer is starting up. Once in the BIOS setup utility, look for a boot priority option. If your computer is capable of booting from a DVD, your DVD drive will be listed. Make sure the DVD drive has a higher boot priority than your hard drive(s) to enable booting from a DVD.

Once you have determined that you can boot from the DVD, start or reboot your machine with the disc in your DVD drive. After a few moments, you should see the installation routine. Follow the onscreen prompts to finish the installation.

Note

To get Service Pack 2, you can download the ISO disk images from download.novell.com or use the Red Carpet update tools to download individual packages from update.novell.com. Service Pack 2 includes the most current device drivers for the supported architectures (x86, AMD64 and EMT64).
