[Bug 221979] New: Documentation - Installation Options
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=221979 Summary: Documentation - Installation Options Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: i386 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Documentation AssignedTo: rwalter@novell.com ReportedBy: alpha096@tpg.com.au QAContact: ke@novell.com The Installation of SUSE Linux is only covered in the manual via YAST and the CD being the installation source. Network Installation is not covered, however vast functionality is available to the user. I am sure the documentation does exist, however due to product placement it is not included in the Open Suse Documentation. Instead of leaving the user to only hear about a Network Installation and adopting a poke it a see approach when they find it, could we also include the other installation options. It is particularly obvious that a Network Installation MUST exist as at the end of a Normal Installation there is the option to 'clone the installation' as a tick box - the consequences of which could be quite disconcerting to the new user. As I said, product placement may preclude this functionality to be included in the open documentation, however as it exists I think it is better to discuss it rather than a user try the poke it and see approach. Better to have an application utilised well than fail due to lack of information and caste a poor opinion of its worth because of lack of information. - Your discussion to have. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

The installation chapter in Start-Up mentions other possible installation methods via network and includes links to the respective chapter in the Reference Guide (Chapter 1, Remote Installation) where this is described in detail. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
