It's Finished!

There you are. Installation is now complete and your GNU/Linux system is ready to use. Just click Reboot to reboot the system. Don't forget to remove the installation media (CD-ROM or floppy). The first thing you should see after your computer has finished doing its hardware tests is the bootloader menu, giving you the choice of which operating system to start.

Tip

The Advanced button shows two more buttons to:

  1. Generate auto-install floppy: to create an installation floppy disk that will automatically perform a whole installation without the help of an operator, similar to the installation you just configured.

    Note that two different options are available after clicking the button:

    • Replay. This is a partially automated installation. The partitioning step is the only interactive procedure.

    • Automated. Fully automated installation: the hard disk is completely rewritten, all data is lost.

    This feature is very handy when installing a number of similar machines. See the Auto install section on our web site for more information.

  2. Save packages selection: saves a list of the packages selected in this installation. To use this selection with another installation, insert the floppy and start the installation. At the prompt, press the F1 key and type linux defcfg="floppy" .
