+The installation procedure can support some different Linux platforms
-(currently it provides configuration scripts for RedHat-7.1 and
-RedHat-8.0)
-and various number of products.
-
The using of configuration xml files gives flexible way to modify the

-program's source code. Just create your own configuration file and implement
-installation scripts for products you want to be provided by Wizard. See
-modifying
-XML configuration file and implementing installation

-
The Installation Wizard was built with -using of the Qt library. The program contains several -pages. To navigate between pages use "Next" and "Back" buttons -in the lower part of the wizard window.

-not installed at all. Possible options and default choice are provided

-part of the page. Note that some products can be installed only together
