Installing directly from the Setup disk
If you want to install IBM® Rational® Software Architect
Designer as
a non-administrator, you must manually run the userinst program from
the Setup disk instead of running the launchpad program. Running the
userinst program provides you with the same functionality as starting
the product installation from the launchpad.
About this task
- If you are installing from the disks:
- Insert the Setup disk into your drive.
- : Mount the drive.
- If autorun is enabled on your computer, the launchpad program starts automatically. Stop the launchpad program.
- In a command line, change to the root of the Setup disk and do
one of the following things:
- : Run InstallerImage_win32_x86\userinst.exe.
- : Run InstallerImage_linux_gtk_x86/userinst.
- : Run InstallerImage_macosx_cocoa_x86/userinst.app or InstallerImage_macosx_cocoa_x86_64/userinst.app.
- If you are installing from electronic disks downloaded from IBM Passport Advantage®, open a command
line and change to the directory where you extracted the disk images,
and then do one of the following things:
- : Run RSA_SETUP\InstallerImage_win32_x86\userinst.exe.
- : Run RSA_SETUP/InstallerImage_linux_gtk_x86/userinst.
- : Run userinst.app, which is located in the InstallerImage_macosx_cocoa_x86 or InstallerImage_macosx_cocoa_x86_64 sub-directory under the RSA_SETUP or RSA4WS_SETUP directory.
