Tutorial: How to Install CasaOS on NetBSD

In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of installing CasaOS software on NetBSD.

Requirements

Before we start, make sure you have the following requirements:

• NetBSD system installed on a machine with 64-bit architecture
• Internet connection
• git and docker installed on your NetBSD system

Installation Steps

1. First, let's download the installer script from the casaos GitHub repository. Open your terminal and enter the following command:

$ git clone https://github.com/casa/casaos.git

2. Navigate to the casaos directory and execute the installer script:

$ cd casaos
$ ./install.sh

This will download the necessary dependencies and set up the CasaOS environment.

3. Once the installation is complete, you can start the CasaOS docker container by entering the following command:

$ docker run --detach --name=casa -p 3001:3001 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock casa/casaos:latest

The --detach flag runs the container in detached mode, the --name flag specifies a name for the container and the -p flag maps the container's port 3001 to the host port 3001. The -v flag mounts the host's /var/run/docker.sock socket into the container, allowing CasaOS to interact with Docker on the host system.

4. Verify that the container is running by entering the following command:

$ docker ps

This should display a list of running containers, including the CasaOS container.

5. Finally, open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3001. You should see the CasaOS Dashboard.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed CasaOS on NetBSD.
