Installation without GUI

The installation can be started directly on the system with the available installation script. The use of the graphical installer is not necessary.

Especially in environments where the transmission speed to the host via e.g. a VPN connection is too slow, this method can be used to perform an installation directly on the system.

In this document all possible call scenarios and the associated parameter combinations are documented.

The installation is started in the directory ../2MEBEFF/scripts. In these examples, the 2MEBEFF directory was copied from the ISO to the /tmp directory of the target system
