<h2>NetKernel Installation Guide</h2>
<p> 
This guide describes how to download, install, and run 1060<registered/>
NetKernel <sup>TM</sup>.
</p>
<p>
	<i>System requirements:</i>
	To run NetKernel you must have a computer and operating system
	capable of running Java 8.
</p>
<p>
	Please consult the NetKernel forum topic focused on
	<a href="http://www.1060.org/forum/index/5">installation issues</a>
	for up to date information or for assistance.
</p>
<p>
The installation process takes less than a minute, requires zero-configuration
and once installed a simple web-based user interface makes getting started easy.
</p>

<h3>Download</h3>
<p>
First, download and install Java on your operating system.
You will need Java version 8 or later.

Check with your operating system vendor or the Java
<a href="http://java.sun.com">web site</a>.

Verify which version of Java you have by running the following
command: "java -version"

</p>
<p>
	Next,
	<a href="http://download.netkernel.org/nkse/">download NetKernel</a>
	from the 1060 Research web site.
</p>
<h2>Installation</h2>
<p>
	The NetKernel download is a bootable Jar file.
</p>
<p>
	In the directory where you downloaded <code>1060-NetKernel-SE-xxx.jar</code>
	either double-click the jar file or at a command prompt type:
</p>
<pre>java -jar 1060-NetKernel-SE-x.x.x.jar</pre>
<p>
Like a Linux Live-CD, NetKernel boots directly from the Jar and is fully useable. When NetKernel has started
point your web-browser to:
</p>
<p>
<a href="http://localhost:1060">http://localhost:1060</a>
</p>
<p>
You can explore NetKernel before rolling the distribution out to disk.

The "Install" panel in the control panel provides a self-installer.  Follow the
prompts to have NetKernel install itself to your disk.
</p>
<h2>Booting NetKernel after Install</h2>
<p>
To boot NetKernel go to the install
directory you chose at installation (in the
documentation this is given the shorthand [install] ).

Type the following at the command line:

<pre>
bin/netkernel.sh    [Linux/Unix]
bin\netkernel.bat [Windows]
</pre>
To access the NetKernel admin control panel again go to...
<a href="http://localhost:1060/"><b>http://localhost:1060/</b></a>
