To install PulseUno from a command line on Linux:

  1. Download the installation .tar file.

  2. As a root user, change to the location of the .tar file and extract the installer using this command:

    Copy code
    tar xvf <PulseUno-installer>.tar 
  3. Run the installer in console mode:

    Copy code
    <PulseUno-installer>.bin -i console

    For example:

    Copy code
    pulseuno-23.2.0-setup-linux.bin -i console
  4. Select the language of the installer. Enter the number for German, French, or Portuguese, or press the Enter key to accept English as the default.

    Note: This option doesn't set the language of the PulseUno user interface. The installer delivers the English version of PulseUno. To change the default UI language after the installation, see Set system properties.

  5. Read and accept the license agreement.

    Press any key other than Enter to move through the license agreement.

    Then press the Enter key to accept the terms.
