Description
This installer update contains an updated kernel that resolves the following issue:

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15
Architecture
x86_64
Installation
- Burn the ISO image above to an empty CD/DVD media.
- Start the installation using the new CD/DVD media, having the standard SUSE Linux Enterprise media at hand or a URL to a network installation server.
- If doing a network install, enter the URL of the network install source on the boot command line using the 'install=' option.
- If doing installation from optical media the installer will first boot from the driver kit and then ask to insert CD1 of the SUSE Linux Enterprise product.
- An initrd containing updated drivers will be used for installation.
PXE boot installation
- Download the ISO image above.
- Mount the ISO image for access to the contents.
- Copy the kernel and initrd images from the driver kit iso image to the appropriate location on your tftp boot server. The initrd and kernel image are found under the ./install/boot/x86_64/loader directory. Download links for the kernel and initrd images can also be found in the table below.
- Copy the contents of the ISO image to a location on your installation server. (The /boot directory may be omitted)
- Add the URL of the driver kit location on the installation server to the boot command of the pxelinux config file using the 'addon=' option.
- An updated kernel will be used for installation and installed onto the system.
