# AS400 Terminal Install & Setup Instructions
|
|
|
|
## Install MacOS
|
|
|
|
For the iMac model, use the following OSX releases:
|
|
|
|
> **A1195 (White Bezel)** - OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard (*10.4 Tiger* to *10.7 Lion*)
|
|
>
|
|
> **A1208 (White Bezel)** - OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard (*10.4 Tiger* to *10.7 Lion*)
|
|
>
|
|
> **A1224 (Silver Bezel)** - OSX 10.10 Yosemite (*10.5 Leopard* to *10.11 El Capitan*)
|
|
>
|
|
> **A1418 (Silverback)** - OSX 10.14 Mojave (*10.8 Mountain Lion* to *10.15 Catalina*)
|
|
|
|
- During install, split into 2 partitions. Format partition 1 as AFS or HFS. Format partition 2 as Fat32 (Apple refers to Fat32 as just FAT).
|
|
- Install the *next to most recent* version of OSX instead of the most recent onto partition 1.
|
|
- Shut down, then hold option after pressing the power button to choose the startup drive to select the Lubuntu install USB drive.
|
|
|
|
## Install Lubuntu
|
|
|
|
- Boot to the Lubuntu USB drive and choose Try Lubuntu.
|
|
- Once loaded, click the start menu -> **System Tools** -> **KDE Partition Manager**.
|
|
- In the partition manager, select the Fat32 partition and click delete. Then click apply and close the partition manager.
|
|
- Double click the install Lubuntu icon from the desktop.
|
|
- The user name should be terminal (lowercase). For computer name, I used "terminal-MODELMMYY" (ex. terminal-A11950924)
|
|
- Make sure to select the option to not require login when creating the user.
|
|
|
|
## Setting up Lubuntu with the iAccess software
|
|
|
|
### Copy files
|
|
|
|
- Create a new folder on the desktop named temp (all lowercase).
|
|
- Copy the contents of `\\SOHBACKUP\Programs\2024-Terminals` to the new folder you created.
|
|
- _Alternately you can copy the whole "Terminals" folder to the desktop, right click the folder and rename it to temp._
|
|
|
|
### Run setup script
|
|
|
|
- Open the terminal
|
|
- For Lubuntu 18, it is LXTerminal: **Start** -> **System Tools** -> **LXTerminal**
|
|
- For Lubuntu 24, it is QTerminal: **Start** -> **System Tools** -> **QTerminal**
|
|
- At the terminal prompt, type the following:
|
|
> `cd ~/Desktop/temp`
|
|
>
|
|
> `sudo chmod +x install*.sh`
|
|
>
|
|
> For 32-Bit systems (A1195 & A1208): `sudo ./install32.sh`
|
|
>
|
|
> For 64-Bit systems (A1224 & A1418): `sudo ./install64.sh`
|
|
