+Installation Overview:
+
+The ROCK Linux install / rescue system boots up in two stages. In the first
+stage only a small binary is running which is used to load the complete
+install / rescue system into the memory. So in the first stage you can load
+network and scsi kernel modules, configure network devices (for netwok
+installation) or load the system from a floppy or CD-ROM device.
+
+For a normal installation from the first CD-ROM you only need to press enter
+for each question to do use default options.
+
+You can freely choose which terminal devices (e.g. 'vc/1' or 'tts/0').
+If you just hit <ENTER>, you'll use vc/1 to vc/6.
+
+To start the installation just exectute our Setup Tool ONE via 'stone' or
+'stone -text', if you prefer non-dialog based menus.
+
+
+In STONE you can create your partitions and filesystems and after selecting
+the Package Manager choose wich packages to install.
+
+At the end reboot your machine with 'reboot -f'.
