What are the options that appear after the system boots from the installation media? Briefly explain each option.
What will be an ideal response?
After your system has booted from the installation media, the following options appear:
• Boot from Hard Disk. Boots an operating system installed on the hard disk (if one exists). This is the default option. It allows the system to boot normally in the event you forget to remove your SLES 11 installation media from the optical drive.
• Installation. Starts the normal installation process. All modern hardware functions are enabled.
• Repair Installed System. Boots into a graphical repair utility.
• Rescue System. Starts the SLES 11 rescue system. If you cannot boot your installed Linux system, you can boot the computer from the installation media and select this option. This starts a minimal Linux system without a graphical user interface to allow you to access disk partitions for troubleshooting and repairing an installed system.
• Check Installation Media. Starts a verification routine that checks the integrity of your SLES 11 installation media.
• Firmware Test. Starts a BIOS checker that validates ACPI and other parts of your system BIOS.
• Memory Test. Starts a memory testing program that tests system RAM by using repeated read and write cycles. This is done in an endless loop, because memory corruption often shows up sporadically, and many read and write cycles might be necessary to detect it. If you suspect that your RAM might be defective, start this test and let it run for several hours. If no errors are detected, you can assume that the memory is intact. Terminate the test by rebooting the system.
