3. Mount the DVD drive

Insert the client program DVD in the DVD drive, and then execute the following command:

Example

# mount -t iso9660 -r -o loop /dev/dvd /media/dvd

/dev/dvd is the DVD drive device, and /media/dvd is the mount point (which must already exist before calling the command).

Note

If the DVD was mounted automatically using the automatic mount daemon (autofs), "noexec" is set as the mount option, so the installer may fail to start. In this case, use the mount command to remount the DVD correctly, and then run the installation. Note that the mount options of a mounted DVD can be checked by executing the mount command without any arguments.

4. Run the installation

Execute the following command:

Example

# cd /media/dvd
# ./install.sh

In the example above, /media/dvd is the DVD mount point, and /home/work/inspara.csv is the installation parameter CSV.
