Flan at the University of Akron College of Business
For this guide, we will be using a modified ASUS CN60 computer and the
Debian GNU/Linux operating system. The installation process for
digital signage computers that will run Debian GNU/Linux is described
on the Flan setup page, but will
be mentioned here as well for documentation purposes. Much of the
work that needs done after installing Debian is done for you via the
use of some Bash scripts. This guide will go over the steps you will
need to do still.
Please note that the College of Business has various aspects
pre-configured for its use. You only need to follow the Debian
installation portion of that page.
Follow the steps outlined here.
Once the system has booted for the first time, log into root and run
wget https://www.aperture.akron.oh.us/~coblabs/cal/setup.bash -O- | bash
The script has been tested to function as-is on Debian GNU/Linux
starting with version 8. Unless extra hardware issues are present,
Flan should load within seconds, depending on hardware speeds.
