Example installation prompts
For reference, an example of the prompts that display during installation on a UNIX™ server using console mode follows. Be sure to read and follow the instructions that display during your actual installation.
After you enter information, most prompts display your response and require a yes or no (Y/N) confirmation before you continue. These prompts give you the opportunity to make corrections when needed.
Use this example to help you gather required information before you begin your installation, and for reference during your installation.
