Debian Package Installer

Storj provides an Object Mount package installer for Debian (and Debian-based) Linux distributions.

This installer can be used with 🌐 Debian-based distributions such as Ubuntu, etc.

Follow the steps below to install and configure Object Mount for Debian-based Linux platforms.

Step 1. Download the Installer Package

Download the latest package installer.

• Note: If you do not have a download link, reach out to your 🌐 Storj Representative.

Step 2. Unpack the Archive

Use the installer’s .run script to unpack the archive by entering the following command from a terminal window:

sh cuno_mne_amd64_glibc_deb.run

sh cuno_mne_amd64_glibc_deb.run

The unpacking process will prompt you to read and agree to the Object Mount end-user license agreement (EULA).

• Note: You can automate this step by setting the environment variable CUNO_INSTALL_ACCEPT_EULA="yes". (This is equivalent to accepting the EULA).

The archive and its contents will be unpacked into a directory named cuno_{VERSION}_amd64_glibc_deb containing the package itself plus some additional files.

View the unpacked contents with the following ls command (substituting your version number):

$ ls cuno_1.2.8.8_amd64_glibc_deb
cuno_1.2.8.8_amd64_glibc.deb
CUNO-Installation-and-Usage-Guide.pdf

$ ls cuno_1.2.8.8_amd64_glibc_deb
cuno_1.2.8.8_amd64_glibc.deb
CUNO-Installation-and-Usage-Guide.pdf

Step 3. Install Object Mount and its dependencies using apt

3a. Use sudo to update apt:

sudo apt update

sudo apt update

3b. Then install the Object Mount package (substituting your version number):

sudo apt install ./cuno_1.2.8.8_amd64_glibc_deb/cuno_1.2.8.8_amd64_glibc.deb

sudo apt install ./cuno_1.2.8.8_amd64_glibc_deb/cuno_1.2.8.8_amd64_glibc.deb

The installer will fetch and install any necessary additional packages (such as libfuse, etc.).

3c. Next, the installation process will prompt you to activate Object Mount.

• Press 1 to activate a free trial:

  • This will activate a fully-featured 14-day free trial.

• Press 2 if you already have a license key:

  • Paste your license key or enter a full path to a license key file.

  

• Note: You can automate this step by setting the environment variable CUNO_INSTALL_LICENSE to one of trial | none | <your license key> | <full path to your license key file>.
