Install Mudbox on Linux using the RPM utility

With the Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) command-line utility, you can use either the -i flag or the -ivh flag to install the programs. The -ivh flag provides you with more information during the installation.

To install Mudbox on a Linux OS using the RPM utility:

Depending on whether you install the software from a DVD, USB, or via the web, perform the appropriate step:
- Insert the DVD or USB into your system and in a UNIX shell, enter the command to mount the drive:
```
mount -r /dev/dvd/mnt/dvd
```
- Download from the website the .gz file, and extract the Mudbox package from the compressed file.
In the UNIX shell, enter the command as super user (for root):
```
su -
```
Enter the super user password.
Go to the shell where you extracted the product's packages.

Enter the command to list all the contents:

ls

The list of rpm packages is similar to the rpm packages listed in the following table where the # character indicates the package number.
