5.3. Install the package

The installation process depends on the package type. There are different methods for rpm, deb and self-extractable archive, as well as a typical method for FreeBSD.

5.3.1. Install the rpm package

To install BitDefender Antivirus Scanner for Unices on a RedHat based distribution, using the RedHat package manager, you have to run the following command.

#rpm -i BitDefender-scanner-{ver}.{os}.{arch}.rpm

5.3.2.Install the deb package

To install BitDefender Antivirus Scanner for Unices on a Debian based distribution, using dpkg, you have to run the following command.

#dpkg -i BitDefender-scanner-{ver}.{os}.{arch}.deb

5.3.3.Install the self-extractable archive

The self-extractable archive is a package containing all the required files for the installation. It acts as a shell script (you can open it with a text editor) and can be given several parameters in the command line. Usually, for a normal installation, there are no parameters required, simply run the script.

Run the self-extractable archive

This package should be installed using the following command.

#./BitDefender-scanner-{ver}.{os}.{arch}.run

This will unpack the BitDefender files (engines, core, etc.), the install and uninstall scripts, and will launch the installer, which, in turn, will install all the provided BitDefender components, as described in the next section.
