Use this page to configure the new Linux Operating System component that you are creating.

Page Element	Description
Reference Installation	Enter the name of a host that is running the same version of the Linux Operating System that you are creating in the library. Alternatively, you can click the "flashlight" icon, and select the appropriate host name from the look-up window that is displayed.
RPM Repository	Enter the appropriate RPM repository that identifies the network accessible directory that is hosting all the RPMs from the Linux distribution, and all updated RPMs from the vendor.
Time Zone	Select the appropriate time zone from the drop-down list.
Use UTC Clock	Select this check box, if you want the component to use the UTC clock.
Root Password	Enter the root password.
Root Password Encryption	Select this check box if the root password that you have provided is already of an "MD5 hash" type.

RPM Links	Select this check box if you want to conserve the disk space. This option will store only the links to the RPMs rather than the RPMs themselves.
