Installing Using ISO Image

NOTE:

When installing the DPPS server updates using an ISO image, if you enter

any incorrect information, you can reset it by selecting PackageConfigure at the

end of the installation process.

1 Use one of the following methods to make the ISO visible to the

DPPS Server:

a

For physical servers, burn the ISO image to a CD/DVD and insert

it into the optical drive.

b

For virtual servers, mount the ISO image using the virtual server

system for mounting ISOs.

c

If you downloaded the DPPS ISO directly into the virtual server,

type the following commands in a terminal:
sudo mkdir /mnt/iso
sudo mount -o loop /PathTo/DPPS-0.5.3-Server-
Packages.iso /mnt/iso

NOTE:

The version number,

0.5.3

in this example, may vary depending on

the package you are installing.

2 After you mount the ISO,

a

Click SystemAdministrationSoftware Sources.

b

Click Third Party Sources tab.

c

Click Add and type the path to your optical drive/ISO mount:
deb file:///mnt/iso /
where mnt/iso is the corrected path of the mounted ISO,

for example media/cdrom0. If you used the third method (1 – c)

to mount the ISO, the path is mnt/iso.

NOTE:

You must insert a space after

iso

in the command.
