Installation Instructions

Yves Zoundi edited this page Oct 26, 2022 · 4 revisions

Entrusted is available for Linux, Mac OS and Windows. You can download the latest version from the GitHub releases page.

If you prefer to build the code from source, please refer to the build instructions.

Pre-Requisites

Unless you use the live CD, you must install a container solution

Installation on Linux

Fuse is required under Linux, it's often installed by default on most Linux distributions nowadays (fuse package). Fuse is needed because the graphical user interface program is packaged as an AppImage.

Tar Archive

The archive contains all the program binaries.

DEB Package

This is for Linux distributions that have adopted DEB as package format (usually Debian based).

The DEB package contains the graphical and command-line interface programs (entrusted-gui and entrusted-cli respectively).

sudo dpkg -i ./entrusted-linux-<arch>-<version>.deb
sudo apt-get -f install

RPM Package

This is for Linux distributions that have adopted the RPM package format (usually Red Hat based).

The RPM package contains the graphical and command-line interface programs (entrusted-gui and entrusted-cli respectively).

sudo dnf install ./entrusted-linux-<arch>-<version>.rpm

Flatpak

Please checkout the axtloss flatpaks project page.

Installation on Mac OS

The DMG image is recommended for most users, it contains a standard .App bundle(not signed).

If you prefer a zip file, please download the zip archive instead.

Installation on Windows

If you have administrative rights, please pick the EXE installer.

Otherwise, there's a zip archive that you can extract and then run the application.

Installation from the Live CD

The Live CD ISO image comes with a fully configured installation of Entrusted and its Web Interface.

  • It is based on Debian GNU Linux
  • It is meant for deployment within virtual machines

There are few reasons to prefer the live CD ISO image over platform-specific binaries:

  • You want Entrusted to be available on-demand and you're already using virtual machines in tools such as VirtualBox, VMWare, Parallels, QEMU, etc.
  • You do not want to install Docker, Podman or Lima directly on your machine
  • You like the extra security layer provided by virtual machines
