- Open a command prompt and navigate into the directory 'savlinux' (e.g. cd ~/Desktop/savlinux).
- Execute the script install.sh (sudo bash install.sh, YOU MUST BE ROOT).
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the Sophos Anti-Virus installation.
- The default installation options can be accepted by hitting the Enter key when prompted.
- Select Y for all options and leave the default path.
- It will take a bit of time after install before Sophos properly talks to the servers and updates. Once that happens it will be configured properly.
- Command line options and controls are available to update, scan, and manage Sophos. For more information, please see the Sophos user guide (PDF). If you left the default path during the install you will generally find everything in /opt/sophos-av.
