The COMSOL Installer is a user interface tool that guides you through the installation process. To start the installer:

1	Connect the USB Flash Drive to your computer.

2	If the USB Flash Drive is not mounted automatically by your operating system, use the mount command to mount it.

3	To start the installation, enter the command

sh drivepath/setup

where drivepath  is the mount point of the USB Flash Drive, for example /media/usb.

You might have to mount the USB Flash Drive with the option -o exec if your Linux mounts the USB Flash Drive without execute options by default.
