ApplianceWare v.5.3 Complete FAQ – February 24, 2004 – Page 13 of 30

1.3 ApplianceView for Linux (x86/PPC)

1.3.1Can I install and run ApplianceView without an X-Window system? If not, what are minimal video subsystem requirements for ApplianceView?

Unfortunately, ApplianceView as well as its installer, require an X-Window system. You should configure it to run at least with 256-color (i.e. 8-bit) depth.

1.3.2I have a Linux-based client computer. How do I proceed with ApplianceView installation?

Please follow the steps below.

NOTE

If you're running Linux on a PowerPC-based machine, please refer to question 1.3.7 before proceeding.

•Assuming that you have mounted client installation CD, please change directory to it using a terminal, then launch the setup.bin file:

./setup.bin

If you cannot launch setup directly from CD, please copy setup.bin to your temporary directory, and then launch setup again.

•Now please follow the on-screen instructions of installer.

•After installation is complete, you can lauch ApplianceView from its installation folder, or using the symbolic links that you may have been created at setup time. Please note that if you have a subdirectory named “ApplianceView” (without quotes) in the same directory as symbolic links, then you should use a runApplianceView link instead of just ApplianceView in order to run ApplianceView.
