Data Protector Express Installation Guide
If you are installing from a CD drive:
1. Insert the Data Protector Express CD-ROM.
2. If auto-mount is not enabled on your system, you must mount the CD-ROM yourself. Refer to the
following example for some Linux systems:
a. Access a terminal window.
b. Type
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
and press
Enter
.
c. Wait a moment for Linux to mount the CD-ROM.
3. Access the root directory on the CD-ROM. For example, on some Linux systems, type
cd
/mnt/cdrom
and press
Enter
to access the root directory on the installation CD-ROM.
NOTE:
If Data Protector Express is running, you must close it before continuing.
4. To run the installation program, type
./install
as the root user and press Enter.
The installation program detects the environment that you are running. If you run
./install
from inside of an X Window System, the installation program launches the graphical-based
installer. If you run
./install
from outside of an X Window System, the installation program
launches the character-based installer.
