Installation on consoles (non-GUI mode)

In cases where there is no graphics display device available, or for some
other reason you wish to run the installer without the graphical user
interface (GUI), the Installer can be launched in console or non-GUI
mode. When invoking the installer setup program add the

–console

command line argument. In cases where the Installer launches
automatically, select Cancel to cancel the GUI install and then launch the
setup program from a terminal or console. Then:

1

Change the default directory to the CD.

2

Run the setup program with the

-console

command line argument:

.\setupConsole -console

The flow of the installation is identical to a regular GUI installation,
except that the display is written to a terminal window and responses are
entered using the keyboard.
