## How to Install SLES From Distribution Media

Before You Begin

If necessary, configure your console display and erase your boot hard drive. See Preliminary Tasks Before Installing An OS for details.

1. Configure the server to boot from the distribution media, as described in Booting From OS Distribution Media.

   The server boots from the distribution media.

2. Follow the installation instructions provided with your SLES installation documentation to complete the installation of the system software.

   Note - If you already have an operating system besides Linux installed (for example, the Solaris OS), it appears as a partition during the installation process. If you choose to install SLES on that partition, it will overwrite the OS. If you wish to preserve the partition, you must install SLES on a different partition.
