The following options may be set from this screen. Use the SPACE key
|
|
to toggle an option's value, Q to leave when you're done.
|
|
|
|
NFS Secure: NFS server talks only on a secure port
|
|
|
|
This is most commonly used when talking to Sun workstations, which
|
|
will not talk NFS over "non priviledged" ports.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NFS Slow: User is using a slow PC or ethernet card
|
|
|
|
Use this option if you have a slow PC (386) or an ethernet card
|
|
with poor performance being "fed" by NFS on a higher-performance
|
|
workstation. This will throttle the workstation back to prevent
|
|
the PC from becoming swamped with data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Debugging: Turn on the extra debugging flag
|
|
|
|
This turns on a lot of extra noise over on the second screen
|
|
(ALT-F2 to see it, ALT-F1 to switch back). If your installation
|
|
should fail for any reason, PLEASE turn this flag on when
|
|
attempting to reproduce the problem. It will provide a lot of
|
|
extra debugging at the failure point and may be very helpful to
|
|
the developers in tracking such problems down!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yes To All: Assume "Yes" answers to all non-critical dialogs
|
|
|
|
This flag should be used with caution. It will essentially
|
|
decide NOT to ask the user about any "boundry" conditions that
|
|
might not constitute actual errors but may be warnings indicative
|
|
of other problems. It's most useful to those who are doing unattended
|
|
installs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
FTP OnError: What to do when FTP transfer errors occur.
|
|
|
|
This is pretty self-explanatory. If you're transfering from a
|
|
host that drops the connection or cannot provide a file, you can
|
|
chose to Abort the connection, Retry the request (see next option)
|
|
or Reselect another FTP host, attempting to retry the request from
|
|
a new site. Pressing SPACE will toggle through these options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
FTP Retries: How many times to retry failing FTP requests.
|
|
|
|
If FTP OnError is set to `retry', this is the number of times to
|
|
loop on a failing request before giving up. If you're talking to a
|
|
site that's chronically overloaded (like ours!) you may wish to
|
|
simply set this to some large value and go to lunch or something.
|
|
|
|
|
|
FTP username: Specify username and password instead of anonymous.
|
|
|
|
By default, the installation attempts to log in as the
|
|
anonymous user. If you wish to log in as someone else,
|
|
specify the username and password with this option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tape Blocksize: Specify block size in 512 byte blocks of tape.
|
|
|
|
This defaults to 20 blocks, which should work with most
|
|
tape drive + tar combinations. It may not allow your particular
|
|
drive to win any records for speed, however, and the more
|
|
adventurous among you might try experimenting with larger sizes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Extract Detail: How to show filenames on debug screen as they're extracted.
|
|
|
|
While a distribution is being extracted, the default detail level
|
|
of "high" will show the full file names as they're extracted.
|
|
If you would prefer a more terse form for this, namely dots, select
|
|
the "medium" detail level. If you want nothing to be printed
|
|
on the debugging screen during extraction, select "low".
|
|
|
|
|
|
Release Name: Which release to attempt to load from installation media.
|
|
|
|
You should only change this option if you're really sure you know
|
|
what you are doing! This will change the release name used by
|
|
sysinstall when fetching components of any distributions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Browser Package: Which package to load for an HTML browser.
|
|
|
|
By default, this is set to lynx but may also be set to any other
|
|
text capable HTML browser for which a package exists. If you set this
|
|
to an X based browser, you will not be able to use it if you're running
|
|
in text mode! :)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Browser Exec: Which binary to run for the HTML browser.
|
|
|
|
The full pathname to the main executable in Browser Package
|
|
|
|
|
|
Media Type: Which media type is being used.
|
|
|
|
This is mostly informational and indicates which media type (if any)
|
|
was last selected in the Media menu. It's also a convenient short-cut
|
|
to the media menu itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use Defaults: Use default values.
|
|
|
|
Reset all options back to their default values.
