Setup guide
4 If your system has a customized xorg configuration, you are prompted to overwrite the file, or not.
5 Once the install has finished, logout of the root user, and login with the application user (e.g. Flame).
The password null, there is no password set.
6 You can now further configure the application with the graphical Setup interface by clicking the link
on the desktop.
Prepare the installation media
Check the release announcement to find out on what media the installers are available.
Major releases are distributed on a USB device. To mount a USB device:
■ Attach the device. Log in to the terminal as root. On Red Hat 6, change directory to the USB mount point
at /media/AUTODESK/. On Red Hat 5, continue with the following steps.
■ Use the dmesg command to output something like sdf: sdf1 to list a recent device connected. Or list
the devices attached to your system with the command: fdisk -l | grep "/dev/sd". The device assigned
to the USB device should look similar to /dev/sds or /dev/sde
■ On a fresh Red Hat 5 installation, automount is enabled , but execution from the device is disabled by
default. So you must enable it:
1 unmount the USB drive with eject /<mountpoint> or eject /dev/<device id>.
2 Create a mount point directory for the disk with mkdir /mnt/usbdisk.
3 Mount the device mount -o shortname=winnt /dev/<device>1 /mnt/usbdisk. Or from the GUI
browse to /dev, right-click the USB device, and choose Mount.
Software is sometimes distributed as tar files. To extract from a tar file:
1 In a terminal, as root, use the md5sum command to verifty the checksum matches the md5sum listed
in the checksum file.
2 Extract from the tar archive with tar -xvf filename.tar.
