Requirements

Dogebox requires the following hardware specs to run:

It is possible to install Dogebox to one hard drive and use another as your "storage" device. This is configured during initial setup.

1) Download the ISO image

Follow the instructions in Getting Dogebox to get an applicable ISO image.

2) Write the ISO to a USB drive

Now that you have downloaded the ISO image, you need to write it to a USB drive to boot.

We recommend using Belena Etcher.

• Open Balena Etcher
• Click Select iamge and navigate to the location of your downloaded and decompressed .iso
• Click Select Drive and choose your USB drive.
• Click Flash and wait for the flashing process to finish

3) Boot from the USB drive

Insert your USB drive into your machine and boot from it. Selecting the USB to boot is typically machine dependant, for example on a PC it is often F12 or Delete.

If you have trouble, try booting into your BIOS / UEFI and manually select the drive to boot from.

4) Configure

Once you have booted from the USB drive, please continue with the installation guide.
