To install LinBPQ from the repo, run the below commands:
```
!!! note "Terminal Commands"
sudo apt update
sudo apt install linbpq
```
## Pre-Configure
```
We need to prepare the system and get configuration files in place. This must be
run on the command line, it's simply the fastest way.
Copy these three lines, one-at-a-time into your terminal and hit enter after
each one.
!!!note "Terminal Commands"
sudo cp /usr/share/doc/linbpq/examples/bpq32.cfg /etc/bpq32.cfg
sudo nano /etc/bpq32.cfg
sudo chown :linbpq /etc/bpq32.cfg
sudo chmod 644 /etc/bpq32.cfg
```
!!! note
!!! tip
Without a config file installed to `/etc/bpq32.cfg`, BPQ from the repo will not start. If you are looking to use a config file in a different location, remove or modify `ConditionPathExists=/etc/bpq32.cfg` in `/usr/lib/systemd/system/linbpq.service`
## Configure
The configuration file I ship in the repo, there are hopefully some obvious fields to fill out. Once all the below holes are filled, you should be able to log in either with [QtTermTCP](../clients/qtttcp.md) or in your web browser at [localhost:8008](http://127.0.0.1:8008)), assuming you're on the same computer as the node.
The configuration file I ship in the repo, there are hopefully some obvious fields to fill out.
You can find the configuration file at `/etc/bpq32.cfg` and use something like
Featherpad to edit it. To learn more about editing text in Linux, see
[here](linux.md/#editing-text-as-root).

`USER` is the key configuration to change here - change `username` to your desired administrator username, `xxxxxxx` to the password and `m0aaa` to the callsign of the administrator.
## Startup
Head back to the terminal and run
!!! note "Terminal Command"
sudo systemctl start linbpq
This will tell the system you want to start the `linbpq` service. Navigate to
[http://127.0.0.1:8008](http://127.0.0.1:8008) if you are on the systme you've
performed the install on and you should see a webpage like below:
