A 64-bit version of Linux is required to run Usfos. Ubuntu is the recommended distribution. It is easy, just follow these steps: Create the folder structure in your home-folder called bin/usfos/etc: Code Block |
---|
mkdir -p ~/bin/usfos/etc |
Go to usfos.no and download the Linux-modules Usfos, Dynmax and Xact, and place them in the newly created bin/usfos directory. More modules and tools can be downloaded later if you need that. Extract the downloaded .gz-files into the same folder. The compressed .gz-files can now be deleted. Make the files executable by opening a command window and run the following commands:
Code Block |
---|
cd bin/usfos # To enter the usfos installation directory
chmod +x * # To make the files executable |
You need to set some environmental variables. Open the file .profile in your home folder, and append the following lines to the end of the file:
Code Block |
---|
# Usfos specific variables
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/bin/usfos"
export USFOS_HOME="$HOME/bin/usfos" |
Place the Usfos license key in the bin/usfos/etc directory. You have now successfully installed Usfos. Since the .profile file is read only at login, you might need to log out and in before the variables is updated. You can then execute Usfos from anywhere in your environment.
