Q: How can I install a compressed package into a Nylux device?

A: There are severals ways to install a compressed package (.tgz file) into a Nylux device, including:

1) Use the installation script "install.sh": by default every Nylux device provide an installation script that enable the user to download from network and automatically install a tgz package. The syntax of that command is the following: ./install.sh <tgz archive name> [<distribution server>] 

Example: if you want to download and installa minimo.tgz package directly from Nylux site's download area (http://www.nylux.it/downloads/pacchetti/), you need to use the command "./install.sh minimo http://www.nylux.it/downloads/pacchetti/" (without quotes).

Please note that using the installation script you can also download and install packages from alternatives distribution servers. It can be used for example a private HTTP server, in order to avoid the external network access. In this case, the command's syntax will change as the HTTP server used (i.e. ./install.sh minimo 192.168.0.248/pkg/).

2) Copy the package to the mobile device, then use the command "tar -C / -xzf packageFullPath.tgz" (without quotes), where packageFullPath.tgz is the full path and name of the tgz file copied on the device.
