If I may chime in here. Believe it or not, I had read below the download page where it mentioned Agama. I clicked there, and it took me to github which talked about a new installer, about how to run and run it remotely. I had made a usb boot, so didn’t need to install a live Agama ISO.
I don’t know if I read the startup guide, but looking at it now, it says Publication Date: June 10, 2024 and shows YaSt. I never came across the guides that malcolmlewis showed. That may have been helpful starting out, to know what to expect. So what I’m saying is for someone wanting to install 16.0, who even looks at the information below the download, the guide does not appear readily available. Even now being aware of it. However, now when I click, full documentation, I do find the guide. But if the startup guide was not relevant, I would not click on the full documentation. I did click on the release notes, which then saw the Agama installer, already had been there, don’t need to see github again on how to install Agama.
So hope that gives at least my thought process and why I never found the guide. The first link about Agama on the download page probably through me off as not relevant.
Anyway, that’s my thoughts on the guide. It’s not front and center. Hidden basically. Most people want to install it, then maybe read the full documentation. So maybe there needs a separate line under Documentation such as, Using the Agama installer. Or even more direct, First timers using Agama Installer, be sure to read this first!
But I got it installed without the guide. It took me a few of attempts. Once I accepted I was not in YaST anymore, and thinking non-intuitively, I did manage to get it installed on my new partition along with all my old ones, exactly the way I wanted. It’s just different, not the same. But I think I can do it better now. I was quite surprised to find it ran in a Firefox browser. How weird! I would think some potential security issues. How can you install an operating system with a browser! Just really odd and unexpected. But hearing you say the young people want that, I guess I’m outdated.
But in one of my attempts where I was realizing it was going to take longer than I had and I was ready to shut down, I thought, what if I closed the browser, would I be at a command prompt or just an empty background? So I did. It restarted! I can’t remember if it started at where I left off or started over, but that may be the “abort” people were wanting.
