Something is wrong with the docs for 11.2 Internet Installation.

Folowing that redirect takes me to <http://wiki.opensuse.org/SDB:Network_installation> which seems to contain much the same information as the original <http://en.opensuse.org/INSTALL_Internet> though formatted differently Neither of them contain the advice I'm looking for, though. They both start out by making a big assumption [I think - since I can't understand them otherwise]. They assume I'm sitting in front of a screen and that when I boot the system, whatever appears on the screen will behave in some way they can predict. So I'm guessing that they both assume I have created some kind of DVD or CD or something that I have caused the machine to boot from. But neither of them state that or provide a link to tell me how to create whatever it is. I think they should. BUT .. that's not actually what I want. I have a running linux system and starting from that, I want to install 11.2 from scratch into a new partition. I don't want to (can't) write some removable media to start the process. I want to do th installation from a running system (not opensuse) using an internet connection and local disks if necessary. Where are those instructions nowadays?
