I am not sure if you need the media or not.

We tested the SLL migration with the liberate formula without the media and it worked. As far as I know, it's only needed if we want to install a new system.

But that chapter is not exclusivly for liberty migration. Customers may want to perform a new installation. We remove now important Informationen

Ok, I'll take a closer look! @Others - do not hesitate to share your thoughts and proposals to solve this dilemma.

Maybe, a better place for client installation instructions is in the Autoinstallation chapter: https://documentation.suse.com/suma/5.0/en/suse-manager/client-configuration/autoinst-distributions.html. In the clients-*.adoc files we assume the client is up and running, and should now registered to the manager. OTOH, I wouldn't mind add an excursion or appendix to the clients-*.adoc files where we provide basic info about client installation from scratch.

Now we must decide how we should fix the raised issue for the currents releases (5.x and 4.3.x) and then how we want to structure the chapters of the Client Config Guide in general.

There is a lot of useful information here that is being removed that is important to understand the overall picture around Liberty. I don't think we need to merge this now and rather handle this later when we have some more time. I would suggest to change it back to draft so it doesn't get merged by mistake.

Converted back to DRAFT.

That is correct. That is why I asked Ricardo again here: https://suse.slack.com/archives/C02D12TNYLS/p1719324925029689:

[...] but at least the 1.1 section, looks to me it can be removed: https://documentation.suse.com/suma/5.0/en/suse-manager/client-configuration/clients-sleses.html#add.base.media

[rjmateus]

Michael has a good point. I will not harm the customer by keeping this in here, and someone may need it. Lets keeps this section, and close this PR so as not merged and not risk merging it. We can remove it in the future If needed.

I'll move my comment #3120 (comment) to our team board. Next time we can discuss how we can further improve the Client Config Guide. Thanks to Ornela, it looks nice and structure is generally good. But at some places, we either could add more details, exchange some sections, or need better intro texts (book, chapters, sections).
