There should be some readme docs on the cdrom that should tell how to do this. You should be able to create the boot disk and modules disk as well from the cd by running setup from/with windows and inserting the floppys when asked. you can do this from any windows box with a cdrom and floppys on hand. The boot disk should boot you right into the text based yast. once you are don you can allways run yas2 from xwindows At 01:06 PM 11/18/2000 -0800, Ahbaid Gaffoor wrote:

Hi All,

I'm new to Suse, I received a trail CD and would like to load it on my laptop.

However my laptop has only 32Megs of Ram, and the GUI installer states after a while that it needs 48 Megs to use the GUI. My question is, is there a text based installer, and if so how do I start this instead?

Many thanks,

Ahbaid.
