12.2 Installing Novell Audit

  1. If you are planning on using a physical DVD or CD-ROMs to install Novell Audit, insert the installation media into your drive, which must be accessible from within your VM. Continue with Step 5.

  2. If you are using ISO files, disconnect the CD-ROM device from your VM by selecting Removable Devices > CD-ROM 1 > Disconnect from the VM menu.

  3. Reconfigure your VM to use the Novell Audit ISO naudit202p3.iso file by selecting Removable Devices > CD-ROM 1 > Edit from the VM menu and browsing to the ISO file in the Connection – Use ISO image section.

  4. Reconnect the CD-ROM device to your VM by selecting VM > Removable Devices > CD-ROM 1 > Connect.

    This causes the Novell Audit ISO to automatically mount the CD-ROM and open a file browser.
