Post Installation: Using the Setup Agent

After your computer reboots, the Red Hat Setup Agent starts. The Setup Agent simplifies the installation process by pushing some configuration work to the post-installation phase. Your new Red Hat Linux computer works just fine whether or not you run the Setup Agent. The Setup Agent helps you to fine-tune your computer. The fine-tuning doesn’t need to occur during the installation, which makes that entire process a bit easier.

The Setup Agent automatically runs when your computer reboots after installing Red Hat Linux. The Setup Agent helps you add user accounts, set your computer's date-time, configure your sound system, and optionally install additional packages. The following instructions describe how to use the Setup Agent:



When the Red Hat Setup System starts, you see the Welcome screen. Click the Next button to start the post-installation configuration process.

The License Agreement window opens.



Read the license requirements, click the Yes, I Agree to the License Agreement button.



Click the Next button.



The Date and Time Configuration window appears, and you can change the date and time if you need to.

You can also let your computer automatically and continuously update your clock. If you plan to be connected to the Internet, either through a LAN (Local Area Network) or a broadband modem (DSL or cable), select the Enable Network Time Protocol (NTP) option. You can choose from a drop-down menu full of time NTP servers. The default choices clock.redhat.com and clock2.redhat.com work well, but you can enter any one you want. Alternatively, you may have access to an NTP server not on the list and can enter it manually.

We recommend that you use the NTP option, if your computer is connected continuously to the Internet on a LAN or a DSL or cable modem. PC clocks tend to drift from seconds to minutes per day. It’s better to be up-to-date than not.



Click the Next button.

The User Account window opens. Only the root user was created during the installation process, but you have the chance here to create one or more user accounts.



Enter an account name, the name of the account owner, and its password. Click the Next button to continue.



Red Hat does a good job of detecting hardware, such as sound cards, and should detect yours, if you have one.

A dialog box opens, asking whether you heard the music.



Click Yes if you did and No if you didn’t.



An Error dialog box opens if you clicked No. Click the OK button to continue.

Consult the section in Chapter 11 about setting up your sound system for help if the sound test fails. Click the Forward button to continue.



10.Click the Next button.

The Finish Setup window opens.



Click the Next button and the Setup Agent closes.



Tip You can run Setup Agent whenever you want. The Setup Agent is a script named firstboot. You can run the Setup Agent by running the firstboot script with the reconfig option. Just run the following commands as root from a GNOME Terminal window:

rm /etc/sysconfig/firstboot  /usr/sbin/firstboot

That’s it! You have built yourself a Red Hat Linux computer. After your computer reboots itself, you can then use it as your personal workstation.
