Home Realm LinuxFor automated installs such as Web-Kickstart or other kickstart based installs, once the installation process begins it should not require any interaction. If the installer does ask questions during an automated install this may be a sign that something isn't working right. In this case you will need to check with your systems administrator, or the documentation for the type if install you are trying to preform.
For manual installs, once the installer begins copying files to the hard drive there is not much more to do than sit back with a cup of coffee. Reboot the machine as prompted by the installer. While the machine is booting up for the first time in Realm Linux many important one time only configurations will take place. If you have setup X a graphical interface will appear asking you questions about various options regarding sending email, users that can login, support options, etc. This is the RealmConfig tool. If X was not configured during the install a text based version will start.
In the case of overlay installs, it will not reboot, but once the customizations necessary are completed, it will then (hopefully) be a usable Realm Linux system. You may also need to run the command realmconfig --boottime to complete the initial configuration of the system.
