In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation of UrBackup on Void Linux. UrBackup is a powerful backup and recovery solution that can backup disk images and files of both Windows and Linux systems.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following:
Before we proceed with the installation of UrBackup, we need to install some dependencies. To do that, open your terminal emulator and type the following command:
sudo xbps-install -Sy gcc cmake qt5-svg qt5-tools qt5-base qt5-printsupport qt5-svg-devel qt5-tools-devel openssl-devel sqlite-devel zlib-devel
This command will install all the necessary dependencies required for UrBackup to work properly.
The next step is to download and extract the UrBackup archive. To do that, open your terminal emulator and type the following command:
wget https://hndl.urbackup.org/Server/2.4.13/urbackup-server-2.4.13.tar.gz
tar xvzf urbackup-server-2.4.13.tar.gz
cd urbackup-server-2.4.13
This command will download the UrBackup archive and extract it to a directory called urbackup-server-2.4.13.
The next step is to compile and install UrBackup. To do that, open your terminal emulator and enter the following commands:
cmake .
make
sudo make install
This command will compile and install UrBackup on your system.
With UrBackup installed, the final step is to start and enable it. To do that, open your terminal emulator and type the following commands:
sudo systemctl start urbackup-server
sudo systemctl enable urbackup-server
This command will start and enable UrBackup on your system.
Congratulations! You have now successfully installed UrBackup on your Void Linux system. You can now use UrBackup to backup and restore files and disk images on your system.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
