1.3 ApplianceView for Linux (x86/PPC)
1.3.1 Can 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.
1.3.2 I 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.
