Before you start, you need to have access to the FreeBSD terminal with root privileges.
The first step is to install Go, as Rclone is written in Go. You can use the following command to install Go:
pkg install -y go
Once installed, you can verify the Go version using the following command:
go version
You can download the latest version of Rclone from the official website using the following command:
fetch https://downloads.rclone.org/rclone-current-freebsd-amd64.zip
Now, extract the downloaded file using the following command:
unzip rclone-current-freebsd-amd64.zip
This will extract the Rclone binary file in the current directory.
To make Rclone accessible globally, we need to move the binary file to the /usr/local/bin directory using the following command:
mv rclone-*-freebsd-amd64/rclone /usr/local/bin
Once Rclone is installed, you can verify the installation by typing the following command:
rclone version
This command should display the version number of Rclone that you just installed.
