New page

* If the installation program hangs almost right away on a PCI-related message, add the boot option "nomodeset" and retry.
* Do not 'upgrade' from an earlier version. Choose 'new install', but use extreme care not to interfere with existing scratch partitions.
* Select the following additional software categories:
** Console tools
** File server
* Unselect:
** Games
* Network configuration:
** Firewall enabled, SSH open
** Static IP address, subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
** DNS: 129.105.1.1, 129.105.49.1, 8.8.8.8

* Add NVIDIA driver (follow the recommend method via "community repository" and the "zypper inr", followed by a reboot):
** http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers
* Add Google Chrome repository (and install google-chrome)
** https://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/ (or from command line via <nowiki>'wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm' followed by 'rpm -ivh google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm'</nowiki>; installing this RPM will also add the corresponding repository, but afterwards you must go in to YaST->Software Management to mark the repository as trusted)
* Install debugging software packages via YaST:
** In Software Repositories, enable openSUSE-Leap-42.1-Debug and openSUSE-Leap-42.1-Update-Debug.
** Go to Software Management, select glibc-debuginfo [NOTE: Does not seem to be available through these repositories]
* In YaST, Network Services:
** NIS client: Domain "el"; Server 129.105.92.12; Open Port in Firewall
** NSF client: Mount /home (options: defaults,rw) and /usr/local from ariadne (options: defaults)
** NTP configuration: Start NTP daemon now and on boot; add server 129.105.92.12
* Connect TO the new machine from ariadne, as root. This will add the host key to ~/.ssh/known_hosts. From there, copy it to /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts (still on ariadne). Also, between the hostname and the IP address, add the FQDN of the new machine, so that that is also associate with the same host key.
* Then, as root '''on the new machine''', do:
** ln -s /usr/local/etc/profile.local /etc
** ln -s /usr/local/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts /etc/ssh
** add the file /usr/local/etc/hosts_list to /etc/hosts
** scp nestor:/etc/motd /etc (and then edit this file to represent the new machine; "nvidia-smi" is a useful program to find the videocard installed)
** texconfig (and set default paper size to 'letter')
** in /etc/ssh/ssh_config set "ForwardX11 yes"
** in /etc/ssh/sshd_config confirm that "X11Forwarding" is set to "yes"
** in /etc/ssh/sshd_config change "#AuthorizedKeysFile" to ".ssh/authorized_keys2"
** scp telemachos:/root/.bashrc ~
** scp telemachos:/etc/hosts.allow /etc
