Installation
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
The latest ISO image for VyOS can be downloaded at https://www.vyos.net.
|
|
|
|
The recommended system requirements are 512MB RAM and 2GB storage.
|
|
|
|
The VyOS ISO is a Live CD and will boot to a functional VyOS image. To login
|
|
to the system, use the default username ``vyos`` with password ``vyos``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh

vyos@vyos:~$
|
|
|
|
vyos@vyos:~$ uname -a
|
|
Linux vyos 4.18.8-amd64-vyos #22 SMP Wed Sep 19 18:24:39 CEST 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux
|
|
|
|
Unlike general purpose Linux distributions, VyOS uses "image installation"
|
|
that mimics the user experience of traditional hardware routers and allows
|
|
you to keep multiple VyOS versions on the same machine and switch to a previous
|
|
version if something breaks after upgrade. Every version is contained in its
|
|
own squashfs image that is mounted in a union filesystem together with a
|
|
directory for mutable data (configs etc.).
|
|
|
|
**Note:** older versions used to support non-image installation (`install
|
|
system` command). It's been deprecated since the time image installation was
|
|
introduced (long before the fork), and does not provide any version management
|
|
capabilities. You **should not** use it for new installations even if it's still
|
|
available in new versions. You should not worry about older systems installed
|
|
that way though, they can be upgraded with "add system image".
|
|
|
|
To install VyOS, run ``install image``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
vyos@vyos:~$ install image
|
|
Welcome to the VyOS install program. This script

Would you like me to try to partition a drive automatically

|
you have already setup your partitions, you may skip this step
