Corel LINUX lets you install applications to your system. Before installing, you must select a file source. A file source is the location from which the application is retrieved. You can install applications using any of the following file sources:
File Source |
Description |
Corel LINUX CD-ROM |
A disk containing Debian applications or application upgrades |
Distribution site |
A path to the Corel/Debian FTP site. |
Custom path |
A path that is linked to an FTP or HTTP site that contains Debian applications or application upgrades. You can edit the custom path or add new paths. |
Notes
You must have a network or Internet connection before you can use the Distribution site and Custom path file sources to install or update applications.
You must have root user privileges to install applications to the system. For information about using the root account, see "Using the root account."
By default, Corel Update is configured to access the Corel FTP site.
