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:

1. Depending on whether you install the software from a USB or via the web, perform the appropriate step:
   • Insert the USB install media and the drive should mount automatically.
   • Download from the website the .gz file, and extract the Mudbox package from the compressed file.
2. In the UNIX shell, enter the command as super user (for root):

   su -

3. Enter the super user password.
4. Go to the shell where you extracted the product's packages.
5. 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.

   Package Name	Description	Required
   Mudbox2020_0_64-2020-#.x86_64.rpm	Mudbox for Linux	Yes
   adlmapps12-#.x86_64.rpm	Autodesk licensing	Yes
   adlmflexnetclient-12.#.x86_64.rpm	Autodesk stand-alone licensing	For a stand-alone license
   adlmflexnetserver-12.#.x86_64.rpm	License server tools (for network licensing)	No

   Note: To auto complete a command line, enter the first few characters unique to a command or rpm package name and press Tab.
6. Install the required RPM packages. For example:
   • To install Mudbox, enter:

     rpm -ivh Mudbox2020_0_64-2020.0-#.x86_64.rpm adlmapps12-#.x86_64.rpm
     adlmflexnetclient-12#.x86_64.rpm

     where the # character indicates the package number.
   • To install Mudbox with Maya enter:

     rpm -ivh --force Mudbox2020_0_64-2020.0-#.x86_64.rpm adlmapps12-#.x86_64.rpm
     adlmflexnetclient-12.#.x86_64.rpm

     where the # character indicates the package number.
