Red hat Linux Installation Through VNC

Ever wondered a Graphical installation can be done through VNC even though the box has only 512mb ram and installs only in text mode, I will show you how to do that, boot the box with Linux Disk


Press Tab on the boot Screen
 

Enter the String as shown in the picture, make sure you enter "vnc" and "vncpassword=*****" remember the password is not envrypted when sent on the wire


Hit enter for the box to boot
 

Skip the CD Test
 

It Will Start the VNC


Note the IP address and the mapped session 1


Launch your vnc client from any other box, can be a windows box as well.


Enter the IP and the session hit ok and then Enter the password


There you go your graphical installation through VNC


Enjoy and Thanks
