The Novell Access Manager Linux Access Gateway is a software appliance designed on the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 9 SP3 kernel. In the standard installation procedure, Linux Access Gateway re-images the hard drive, embeds the Linux operating system, then configures the embedded operating system for optimal performance. However, when you have an existing RHEL server on which you want to install the Novell Access Manager Linux Access Gateway, the installation is performed against a free hard disk partition on the existing RHEL server.
The following sections describe the procedure to install Linux Access Gateway in the advanced installation mode on RHEL 5.1. For detailed instructions, see Section 3.0, Additional Information on Installing And Configuring.
