To install Axion (REVEN GUI) on Windows or Linux other than Debian Stretch, Tetrane provides an AppImage package.
Remark: If you want to install the full REVEN package (server, etc.) on a Linux other than Debian Stretch, you should use the Docker installation package. It is not possible to run the REVEN server on Windows.
To install the AppImage package on Windows 10:
- Install Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) - follow Microsoft’s doc
- Install Xming (or another X Windows Server that runs on Windows) and launch it
- From the WSL shell:
- Install some dependencies from the WSL shell:
# install X server dependencies sudo apt install x11-apps # optionally, users can install xfce4 to have a graphical theme sudo apt install xfce4 # On ubuntu, libharfbuzz is additionally required sudo apt install libharfbuzz-bin
- Export the display to be able to use graphical applications:
export DISPLAY=:0 # And to test the display: xeyes
- Extract the appimage:
/mnt/c/.../Axion-2.2.0-training.AppImage --appimage-extract
- Execute Axion:
./squashfs-root/AppRun
- Install some dependencies from the WSL shell:
To install the AppImage package on Linux:
- All you need to do is make it executable and run it. It is a compressed image with all the dependencies and libraries needed to run the desired software. So there is no extraction, no installation needed. You can uninstall it by deleting it.
