main引导加载程序帮助Welcome to Mandriva Linux 2009 Spring
Use this menu to select the desired function. If you have problems navigating in this help system, press F1 to enter the help描述 of the help system. The main functions in this menu are:
harddisk从硬盘引导: This selection will not do anything to the system. It only starts a previously installed operating system.
linux安装: This installation mode works on most machines. If you experience a system freeze during boot or problems with detection of your hardware components, such as disk controllers or network cards, try one of the following installation options.
noacpi安装 － 禁用 ACPI: Many of the currently-sold computers have incomplete or faulty ACPI implementations. This selection disables ACPI support in the kernel, but still enables many performance features, like DMA for IDE hard disks.
nolapic安装 － 禁用本地 APIC: If the normal installation fails, this might be due to the system hardware not supporting local APIC. If this seems to be the case, use this option to install without local APIC support.
failsafe安装 － 安全设置: If you were not successful with 安装, this selection might solve the issue.
rescue救援系统: This boot image starts a small Linux system in RAM. This is useful if the system does not start properly. After booting this system, log in as root.
firmware固件测试: Runs a BIOS test tool that validates ACPI and other parts of your BIOS.
memtest内存测试: Memory testing is useful for more than checking installation of new memory modules. It is a stress test for a big part of your computer system and may indicate hardware problems.
opt引导选项: The boot options may change the behavior of your system completely. They are settings for the kernel.
helpF1 Help: This is context sensitive. It will show different screens depending on the active element of the boot screen. There is also a description of this help system available.
keytableF2: Set language and keyboard mapping used by the boot loader.
videomodeF3 Video Mode: Here, choose between different screen resolutions while installing. If you encounter problems with the graphical installation, the 文本方式 may be a work-around for you.
install_srcF4 Installation Source: Choose the installation source.
driverupdateF6 Driver Update: For very new machines, a driver update may be needed to install the system.bits软件类型选择You have the choice to install the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Mandriva Linux 2009 Spring.返回 main引导加载程序帮助driverupdate驱动程序更新If you need a driver update floppy or CD-ROM, press F6. The boot loader asks you to insert the driver update medium after loading the Linux kernel.
A driver update is typically a floppy with new versions of hardware drivers or bug fixes needed during installation.返回 main引导加载程序帮助failsafe安装 － 安全设置Select 安装 － 安全设置 if you encounter hangs while installing or irreproducible errors. This option disables DMA for IDE drives and all power management features. See also the kernel options for o_apmapm, o_acpiacpi and o_ideide.返回 main引导加载程序帮助firmware固件测试Starts a BIOS checker that validates the ACPI tables and many other parts of your BIOS. Test results can be stored on usb disk or saved via network.返回 main引导加载程序帮助harddisk从硬盘引导Select 引导已安装的操作系统 to start the system installed on your local hard disk. This system must be installed properly, because only the MBR (Master Boot Record) on the first hard disk is started. The device ID of the first hard disk is provided by the BIOS of the computer.
Use this if you forgot to remove the CD or DVD from your drive and want to start the computer from the hard disk.返回 main引导加载程序帮助help使用帮助系统The boot loader online help is context sensitive. It gives information about the selected menu item or, if you are editing boot options, it tries to look up information about the option in which the cursor is positioned.
Navigation Keys 
  • 向上箭头: highlight previous link  • 向下箭头: highlight next link  • 向左箭头, Backspace: return to previous topic  • 向右箭头, Enter, Space: follow link  • Page Up: scroll up one page  • Page Down: scroll down one page  • Home: go to page start  • End: go to page end  • Esc: leave help返回 main引导加载程序帮助install_src安装源Press F4 to choose an installation source.
This is the same as using the o_install安装 boot option.返回 main引导加载程序帮助keytable语言和键盘布局选择Press F2 to change language and keyboard layout the boot loader uses.返回 main引导加载程序帮助linux安装Select 安装 to start the default installation. The opt引导选项 entered are used in the start-up. This item activates many features of commonly available hardware.返回 main引导加载程序帮助memtest内存测试The included 内存测试 provides good possibilities to stress test the hardware of a system. Its main purpose is to detect broken RAM, but it also stresses many other parts of the system.
There is no guarantee that the memory is good if no errors are found, although most of memory defects will be found.返回 main引导加载程序帮助noacpi安装 － 禁用 ACPICurrent hardware usually requires ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) to control the interrupt handling. ACPI completely replaces the old APM system.
Select 安装 － 禁用 ACPI if you encounter problems during boot of the kernel. Known problems with machines that have problems with ACPI are: 
  • kernel freezes when booting  • PCI Cards are not detected or initialized properly
You may also try the firmware固件测试 boot option and look at the test results of the ACPI validation.返回 main引导加载程序帮助nolapic安装 － 禁用本地 APICNormally there are no problems with the APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller). But if you seem to have some, try this option to boot without local APIC support.
Please don't confuse this with noacpiACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface).返回 main引导加载程序帮助opt引导选项There are two types of boot options available. First, there are options that affect the installer. Second, there are kernel options. Some of the more common options are:
a) installer options 
  • o_install安装 -- select an installation source  • network网络选项 -- the network options  • o_vncVNC 选项 -- options for installation via VNC
b) kernel options 
  • o_splashsplash -- influence the behavior of the splash screen  • o_apmapm -- toggle power management  • o_acpiacpi -- advanced configuration and power interface  • o_ideide -- control the IDE subsystem返回 main引导加载程序帮助o_hostipo_netmasko_gatewaynetwork安装程序选项：网络选项It is possible to configure the network interface right now. The hardware will be detected later by YaST2. The minimum set of options to configure your network card consists of host IP and netmask. For example: 
  • hostip=192.168.0.10 netmask=255.255.255.0
or in a shorter form: 
  • hostip=192.168.0.10/24
If you specified a o_install基于网络的安装 and do not specify both of these options, the installer tries to configure the network interface with dhcp. If you need a default gateway, specify this with the option 网关. For example: 
  • gateway=192.168.0.8返回 opt引导选项o_acpi内核选项：acpiACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is a standard that defines power and configuration management interfaces between an operating system and the BIOS. By default, acpi is switched on when a BIOS is detected that is newer than from year 2000. There are several commonly used parameters to control the behavior of ACPI: 
  • pci=noacpi -- do not use ACPI to route PCI interrupts  • acpi=oldboot -- only the parts of ACPI that are relevant for booting remain activated  • acpi=off -- switch off ACPI completely  • acpi=force -- switch on ACPI even if your BIOS is dated before 2000
Especially on new computers, it replaces the old o_apmapm system.返回 opt引导选项o_apm内核选项：apmAPM is one of the two power management strategies used on current computers. It is mainly used with laptops for functions like suspend to disk, but it may also be responsible for switching off the computer after power down. APM relies on a correct working BIOS. If the BIOS is broken, APM may have only limited use or even prevent the computer from working. Therefore, it may be switched off with the parameter 
  • apm=off -- switch off APM completely
Some very new computers may take more advantage from the newer o_acpiACPI.返回 opt引导选项o_ide内核选项：ideIDE is, unlike SCSI, commonly used in most desktop workstations. To circumvent some hardware problems that occur with IDE systems, use the kernel parameter: 
  • ide=nodma -- switch off DMA for IDE drives返回 opt引导选项o_install安装程序选项：installBy default, the local CD-ROMs are searched for the installation source. For a network install, select the 安装 option. Possible installation protocols are 
  • FTP  • NFS  • HTTP
The syntax to use is just like standard URLs. For example, if your server is found at 192.168.0.1 and you want to do an NFS-based install from the directory /install on this server, specify the source as follows: 
  • install=nfs://192.168.0.1/install
The network card will either be configured with dhcp or you must specify the parameters yourself as described in the network网络选项.返回 opt引导选项o_splash内核选项：splashThe splash screen is the picture shown during system start-up. 
  • splash=0 -- The splash screen is switched off. This may be useful with very old monitors or if some error occurs.  • splash=verbose -- Activates splash, kernel and boot messages are still shown.  • splash=silent -- Activates splash, but no messages. Instead a progress bar is drawn.返回 opt引导选项o_vncpasswordo_vnc安装程序选项：vncTo enable the VNC installation, specify the parameters vnc and vncpassword: 
  • vnc=1 vncpassword=example
The VNC server will be started and you may control YaST2 over any VNC client from a remote system.返回 opt引导选项rescue救援系统The 救援系统 is a small RAM disk base system. From there, it is possible to make all kinds of changes to an installed system. Because only low-level tools are available in this system, it is intended for experts.返回 main引导加载程序帮助videomode视频模式选择Press F3 to get the list of video modes your graphics card supports. The highest mode your monitor can display is preselected.
It is possible that your monitor cannot be detected automatically. In that case, select your preferred mode manually.
If your system has problems with the graphics card during the installation, the 文本方式 may be a usable work-around.返回 main引导加载程序帮助
