1.7 Media Check

The media check dialog appears only if you install from media created from downloaded ISOs. If you install from the original media kit, the dialog is skipped.

The media check examines the integrity of a medium. To start the media check, select the drive in that contains the installation medium and click Start Check. The check can take some time.

To test multiple media, wait until a result message appears in the dialog before changing the medium. If the last medium checked is not the one with which you started the installation, YaST prompts for the appropriate medium before continuing with the installation.

WARNING: Failure of Media Check

If the media check fails, your medium is damaged. Do not continue the installation because installation may fail or you may lose your data. Replace the broken medium and restart the installation process.

If the media check turns out positive, click Next to continue the installation.
