# Linux Installation Information

Extract the tarball (the .tar.gz file) to a location of your choice, e.g. `/usr/local`. This will create the directory `Adminmod` which contains the Admin Mod files. Change into this directory and run the `install_admin` shell script to perform an installation of Admin Mod. Alternatively you can install manually, but the shell script does a good job of getting the basic components in place.

Linked below is the output of the install script sessions for your reference.

- 1st Time Linux Install

- Linux Upgrade Install

Information is also available about creating Linux Passwords

Following installation of the Admin Mod, proceed to The Admin Mod Configuration Files section to begin setting your configuration variables. Once you have your files in place, configuration of Admin Mod is essentially the same for Linux and Windows.
