+ + + Introduction + +
+ NetInstall Media + +
+ Description + + These minimal ISO's contain: + + + + less than 100 MB and are convenient if bandwidth is too low to + download a full DVD, or if you have a PC without a DVD drive or + unable to boot from a USB stick. + + + + no more than that which is needed to a) start the + DrakX installer and b) find + DrakX-installer-stage2 and other packages that + are needed to continue and complete the install. + + + + The required source packages may be on a PC hard disk, a local + drive, a local network or on the Internet. + + + Installation via encrypted wifi or bluetooth is not + supported. + +
+ +
+ Availability + + There a two versions of the NetInstall media: + + + + netinstall.iso For those who + prefer not to use non-free software, this ISO contains only free + software. + + + + netinstall-nonfree.iso This + ISO additionally includes proprietary device drivers, which may be + required for your network device, disk controller, etc. + + + + Both versions are available in the form of separate 32-bit and + 64-bit ISO's. See here: https://www.mageia.org/en/downloads/ +
+ +
+ Preparation + + After downloading the image, burn it to a CD/DVD or, if you prefer + to put it on a USB stick, follow the instructions here: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Installation_Media#Dump_Mageia_ISOs_on_an_USB_stick +
+
+ +
+ Installation Stages + + The installation is carried out in two stages: + + + + Stage 1 This is the + pre-Installation stage. You will need to provide the method and + details for accessing the medium containing the files to be used for + the installation. If the method involves a server, then the network + connection will be activated. + + + + Stage 2 This is the actual + Installation stage, which will automatically commence once a + connection to the installer files has been established. + + + + + During Stage 1, nothing will be written to your Hard Disk, so it + is safe to quit at any point during Stage 1 if you wish. You can do so + by pressing + Ctrl + + Alt + + Del + . + + + + You can use + Alt + + F3 + to read the logs and + Alt + + F1 + to return to the installer screen. + + + + Unlike when installing from DVD or LiveCD, during the first part + of the installation (Stage 1), you will + be asked to type things. During this stage, your keyboard will operate + as per an American + keyboard layout. This can be very confusing when you need to type + names and paths. + +

+ + + + + Stage 1 (Pre-installation Stage) + +
+ Boot + + The particular Welcome Screen that you will see + when booting with the NetInstall media depends on whether you are booting + on a BIOS or UEFI system. See the following two screenshots: + +
+ BIOS Welcome Screen + + + + + + +
+ + When booting up, you can choose to read the advanced help by + pressing F2 and return to the installer screen by + pressing F1. Otherwise, the boot will continue with + default settings. + +
+ UEFI Welcome Screen + + + + + + +
+ + + + Use the arrow keys to highlight Start Mageia + Install and then press Enter. + + + + For both BIOS and UEFI systems, you will then see a pop-up + notification saying that USB devices are being detected: + + + + + + +
+ +
+ Installation Method + + You can now choose an installation method via CDROM/HDD or Server + (NFS, FTP or HTTP). + + You also have the option to load third-party modules at this + point. + + + + + + + + + + Move up or down the list using the arrow keys until the + appropriate method of installation is highlighted. + + + + Press the Tab key until Ok + is highlighted and then press Enter. + + + +
+ Server + + + + If you don't know what to choose for a Network Installation, + choose FTP server. + + + + On an enterprise network, FTP and rsync may be blocked, so + using HTTP server is a good choice in this + case. + + + + After choosing any of the server options you will automatically + proceed to the + section. +
+ +
+ CDROM/HDD + + If you choose to install from either a CDROM or hard disk (or USB + stick), a scan for storage devices will be performed: + + + + + + + + + + First, select the relevant hard drive (or USB stick) + + + + + + + + + + + + Followed by the relevant partition + + + + + + + + + + + + Then specify the directory or the file name of the ISO + + + + Leaving this open, or using the directory is easier, because the + installer then presents you with a list of directories and files from + which you can make your selection using the up and down arrows, as seen + in the second of the following images. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Once the information has been provided for the location of the + ISO, either on CDROM or HDD, you will automatically proceed to + (the actual + installation stage). +
+ +
+ Load Third-Party Modules + + If you wish to Load third-party modules, then + you will be asked for the location of the directory containing the + modules: + + + + + + +
+
+ +
+ Network Connection + +
+ Connection Device + + If you chose any of the server options at the + Installation Method step, you will then be asked to + choose a network device: + + + + + + +
+ +
+ Connection Type + + Now you need to choose whether the network device will use a DHCP, + Static or ADSL connection: + + + + + + + + If you are unsure which option is suitable, then you should + probably accept the default option (DHCP). +
+ +
+ Host/Domain Names + + If necessary, you can now supply your Host and Domain + names: + + + + + + + + + + If you are unsure what this means then you can just leave the + fields blank, highlight Ok and press + Enter to proceed. The network connection will now + be activated. + + + + If you are using either FTP or HTTP, you will automatically + proceed to the + section + + If you are using NFS, you will be asked for the NFS server name + and the directory containing the Mageia distribution: + + + + + + + + After entering the NFS details, you will automatically proceed to + (the actual + installation stage). +
+
+ +
+ Mirrors + + If using FTP or HTTP, you now have to specify a mirror to use. This + can be done manually or by choosing from a list + + + + + + + +
+ Specify Manually + + You will find a list of all available mirrors here: http://mirrors.mageia.org/ + + Whichever mirror you choose, it should use the same tree-like + structure from "mageia" (or "Mageia") as used by the official Mageia + mirrors. That means + .../mageia/distrib/<version>/<arch> + + A correct entry (when using an official mirror) in the + Mageia directory field below, could be: + + pub/linux/mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586 + + Another example (for Mageia 6 x86_64) could be: + + pub/Mirrors/Mageia/distrib/6/x86_64 + + Other mirrors may have a different path structure and the + screenshots below show such examples: + + If you are using an FTP server: + + + + + + + + If you are using an HTTP server: + + + + + + + + Once this information has been provided, you will automatically + proceed to (the + actual installation stage). +
+ +
+ Select From a List + + If you get a lot of missing dependency errors later in the + install, reboot and try a different mirror. + + + + + + + + After choosing an FTP server, you will see a screen where you can + optionally add a login name and password if required. + + + + + + + + Once this information has been provided, you will automatically + proceed to (the + actual installation stage). +
