Console Setup Workflow
warning
This is an advanced workflow that is not necessary for the vast, vast majority of users of the Gizmo platform. The console setup workflow was the original setup workflow to build the FMS setup prior to the introduction of the web interface, and is no longer recommended. If you are trying to build an FMS setup on an unsupported hardware configuration, such as an amd64 computer, you should follow the instructions in Hard Mode instead.
The Console Setup workflow performs most setup tasks using textual commands entered into a terminal window. You can use any terminal you like, even completing these steps remotely logged in via ssh. The Gizmo FMS workstation ships with a handful of terminal emulators installed, which can be found in the applications menu.
Prior to completeing tasks in this section, you should complete the Workstation Setup tasks which involve installing the software image on the FMS.
