SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 Beta

General Installation Notes

Be sure to read General Guidelines for All VMware Products as well as this guide to installing your specific guest operating system.
The easiest method of installing SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 (SLES 10) in a virtual machine is to use the standard SUSE distribution CDs. The notes below describe an installation using the standard distribution CD; however, installing SLES 10 via the boot floppy/network method is supported as well. If your VMware product supports it, you can also install from a PXE server.
Note: With many Linux guest operating systems, various problems have been observed when the BusLogic virtual SCSI adapter is used with VMware virtual machines. Unless you are using ESX Server 2.5.x, VMware recommends that you use the LSI Logic virtual SCSI adapter with this guest operating system.
Before installing the operating system, be sure that you have already created and configured a new virtual machine.
SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 Beta Installation Steps
1 Insert the SLES 9 installation CD in the CD-ROM drive.
2 Power on the virtual machine to start installing SLES 10.
3 Install using the text mode installer. In the first installation screen, use the arrow keys to select Installation, press the F2 key, use the arrow keys to choose text mode, and then press Enter to select the text mode installer.
4 At the Installation Settings screen, go to the Change menu and choose Booting.
5 The Boot Loader Setup screen appears. Set the Boot Loader Type to LILO instead of the default GRUB.
6 The installer displays a warning that indicates you might lose some settings and prompts you to select a course of action. Select Convert current configuration and continue.
7 Select Finish to return to the Installation Settings screen.
8 Follow the remaining installation steps as you would for a physical machine.
This completes basic installation of the SLES 10 guest operating system.
SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 Beta VMware Tools
Be sure to install VMware Tools in your guest operating system. For details, see the manual for your VMware product or follow the appropriate link in the knowledge base article at www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=340.

Known Issues

SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 Beta Do Not Use 4-Bit Color
If you change the screen resolution in the SLES 10 guest operating system, be sure you also set a color bit depth greater than 16 colors (4 bit). If you attempt to use a setting of 16 colors (4 bit), it can cause a fatal error in the X server.
SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 Beta Manual Changes Might Be Needed to Use Networking in Copied Virtual Machine
In some cases, networking does not work properly in a copied or cloned virtual machine or a virtual machine deployed to end users as part of a VMware ACE package. If you copy a virtual machine and specify that the copy should have a unique identifier, the MAC addresses for any virtual Ethernet adapters attached to the virtual machine change. When a SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 guest operating system is installed, it includes the MAC address as part of a key configuration filename. When the virtual machine's MAC address changes, the guest operating system might fail to associate this configuration file with the virtual Ethernet adapter. If you experience this problem, you can work around it by copying or renaming the file. For eth0, for example, make the following change:
Old name:
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0-id-<MAC_address>
New name:
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0
SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 Beta Clock in Guest Operating System Might Run Too Quickly or Too Slowly
If the clock in your guest operating system runs too quickly or too slowly, use one of the workarounds described in the knowledge base article at www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1420.
