First, make sure your BIOS is set to boot from your system??™s CD/DVD drive
before the hard drive. Insert the openSUSE DVD into the drive, and boot. You may select
Manual Installation to enter special boot parameters under Boot Options, but do this only
if you know what you??™re doing. As you boot from the DVD, you will be asked to select
the correct language and keyboard layout.
Select Start Installation or System in the main menu.
Select Start Rescue System and identify where the rescue system is located. By default, this
is the CD. If you have access to an NFS volume with a Rescue System on it, choose this
option. If you have a set of Rescue floppies, see the next section to learn that process.
The Rescue System starts. You can log in as Root with no password. Skip to the ???Using
System Restoration??? section to see what to do next.
Booting from a Rescue Disk Set
YaST will let you make a series of boot disks on floppies that will allow you to boot the
rescue system when your CD-ROM drive is down. Go to the System page in YaST to locate
the Boot or Rescue Floppy module.
