- <b>Boot process (stage1)</b>
-
- Installation begin by booting from CD-ROM or Diskette. From CD-ROM all
-installation method are available (CD, HD, NFS, FTP, HTTP) on options. From
-Diskette according to image selected, only some related method (network or cdrom
-or hd) are available and module managed due to size limitation to 1.44Mb.
- Options are always available by pressing on F1.
-
- <b>DrakX process (stage2)</b>
-
- DrakX installation organized in steps (execution sequence described below).
-Steps listed on left side and help available on bottom right side. most of the
-screen is available for various dialog for interacting with the user. Steps
-execution sequence is automated and described below.
-
-Mouse is probed and if none has been found or if the mouse has not moved, a
-specific mouse configuration is displayed at the begining.
-
-
-Before the graphical steps, there is a detection step. It detects various
-hardware, including modems (from tty0 to tty7), mouse (serial, usb, ps/2) and
-tablets.
-
- <b>Steps</b>
-
- <i>Choose Your language</i>: step always displayed. default choice is previous one or
-<font color="#000080"><i>English</i></font>. After choosing a language, a license splash screen translated in the
-chosen language is displayed with <font color="#000080"><i>Accept</i></font> and <font color="#000080"><i>Refuse</i></font> buttons. <font color="#000080"><i>Refuse</i></font> should
-stop installation. <font color="#000080"><i>Accept</i></font> validate language choice which are propagated to all
-DrakX visible widget. Advanced mode allow to select other language available to
-be installed. Advanced mode allow to select language which will be installed on
-system.
- If step is redone, the license is no more displayed.
-
- <font color="#000080"><i>Select Install Class</i></font>: step always displayed. default choice is previous one
-or <font color="#000080"><i>Recommended</i></font>. Only one other option available is <font color="#000080"><i>Customized</i></font>. Two buttons
-available are <font color="#000080"><i>Install</i></font> or <font color="#000080"><i>Upgrade</i></font>. Available steps (left side) are changed
-according to installation class selected, where the default is the one of
-<font color="#000080"><i>Recommended</i></font> with <font color="#000080"><i>Install</i></font>.
-
- <font color="#000080"><i>Hard Drive Detection</i></font>: step always displayed. In recommended mode,
-automatically done. In Customized mode, all modules that manage SCSI/IDE cards
-are loaded automatically and a question asking for other module to load is
-displayed.
- If clicked later or if to the question to load other module the
-answer is <font color="#000080"><i>Yes</i></font>, a list of module is displayed (or if the question to other
-module to load is. When a module is chosen, two options are available
-<font color="#000080"><i>Autoprobe</i></font> and <font color="#000080"><i>Specify options</i></font>. Autoprobe try to load the module without any
-other user options (default module parameter). Specify options allow user to
-give module parameters individually in a list for all known parameters. At this
-point <font color="#000080"><i>Ok</i></font> or <font color="#000080"><i>Cancel</i></font> are available, Cancel should stop the module installation
-and go to next step. If any error occurs during module installation, a question
-asking to try with other parameter is displayed, the same module is still used.
-
- <font color="#000080"><i>Setup filesystems</i></font>: step always displayed. display a list of available choice
-accoding to what has been probed. May contains <font color="#000080"><i>Use free space</i></font>, "Use existing
-partition<font color="#000080"><i>, </i></font>Use the window partition for loopback<font color="#000080"><i>, </i></font>Use the free space on the
-Windows partition<font color="#000080"><i>, </i></font>Remove Windows(TM)<font color="#000080"><i>|</i></font>Erase entire disk" (according to disk
-configuration =&gt; only one big fat for the first case only), "Custom disk
-partitioning".
- If <font color="#000080"><i>Use free space</i></font> mode, auto allocation in available on available disk.
- If <font color="#000080"><i>Use existing partition</i></font> mode, a list of partition named in Linux
-scheme are displayed with their approximate size in Mb and propose mount point
-to choose in list boxes for each partitions available on hard drive.
- If <font color="#000080"><i>Use the window partition for loopback</i></font> mode, DrakX use available size
-on the windows partition to create a root file and a swap file which will be
-used in loopback, this means this is a lnx4win installation.
- If <font color="#000080"><i>Use the free space on the Windows partition</i></font> mode, DrakX will resize
-the windows partition and allocate true linux filesystem (at least / and swap).
- If <font color="#000080"><i>Remove Windows(TM)</i></font>|<font color="#000080"><i>Erase entire disk</i></font> mode, DrakX clean the
-partition table before auto allocating partition.
- If <font color="#000080"><i>Custom disk partitioning</i></font> mode, diskdrake is launch. TO BE DEFINED to
-change make diskdrake use only advanced mode.
-Diskdrake show all partition of all non-removable disk graphically. All special
-partition are hidden, only user accessible partition are visible: this remove
-extended partition, whole disk partition on sparc platform. Clicking on a disk
-notebook tab show all his partitions. Clicking on a partition show all actions
-available for this partition (depend if customized or advanced mode) as well as
-information on this partition (depend if customized or advanced mode). Most
-diskdrake operation are done without writing on disk (exception are Resizing
-partitions) and everything is written once on the disk when exiting diskdrake,
-at any time if writing partition table is necessary, there are always a dialog
-box asking the user to confirm the write. If no operation are modifying
-partition table, no dialog is displayed on exit (for example if giving mount
-point to partition). General action are available too:
- <font color="#000080"><i>Clear All</i></font>: clear all partition of the given disk.
- <font color="#000080"><i>Auto allocate</i></font>: try to allocate partition in available disk (not the
-seen disk).
- <font color="#000080"><i>Undo</i></font>: undo last operation.
- <font color="#000080"><i>Done</i></font>: quit and save changes.
-Other operations are available in advanced mode:
- <font color="#000080"><i>Rescue partition table</i></font>: try to rescue a lost partition table,
-absolutely no garantee to succeed and may destroy what could be saveable by
-another tools.
- <font color="#000080"><i>Reload</i></font>: reload partition table from disk, erasing all changes in
-memory done by the user.

- <font color="#000080"><i>Options</i></font>: global options available for filesystem configuration. This
-include <font color="#000080"><i>Removable media automouting supermount</i></font> check box disabled by default.
- Operation available on partition are:
- <font color="#000080"><i>Mount point</i></font>: change or define mount point for partition, only
-available for true filesystem partition.
- <font color="#000080"><i>Resize</i></font>: resize partition, if a specific algorithm to keep data is
-used no data may be lost, else all data are lost but nothing is written by
-diskdrake on the partition data in this last case (this means data can be
-restored by restoring original size and location).
- <font color="#000080"><i>Delete</i></font>: delete partition, if the same partition is created (same type,
-location, size) all data can be restored as diskdrake doesn't write on partition
-data.
- Operation available on partition table but in advanced mode are:
- <font color="#000080"><i>Type</i></font>: change type of partition, all data will be lost but diskdrake as
-above does not destroy them, and everyting can be restored.
- <font color="#000080"><i>Format</i></font>: format partition, at this point, all data ARE LOST.
- <font color="#000080"><i>Mount</i></font>: mount partition now, usefull for swap to increase memory

- A legend for partition type colors is available
-(Ext2,ReiserFS,Swap,FAT,Other,Empty). It has additionnal features to create a
-partition or change its type (only available in advanced mode).
