3. To initialise the DT4000 G2, type the following command at the terminal prompt and press ENTER:
./dt4000 G2_initialize* (remember, commands are case-sensitive) See Figure 10.4.
4. After you press ENTER, the licence agreement will display in the terminal window. Press 'Y' to
accept the licence agreement and continue. (Note: If you press 'N' and do not accept the licence
agreement, you will be returned to the terminal prompt and unable to continue the initialisation
process until you repeat step 3 and press 'Y'.)
5. After you accept the licence agreement, you will be prompted to input (create) a password, which
will be used to protect the files stored on the secure data partition. The password you create must
meet the following criteria before the initialisation process will allow you to continue:
a. Passwords must contain 8 characters or more (up to 16 characters)
b. Passwords must contain three (3) of the following:
- UPPER CASE, lower case, numeric and/or special characters (!, $, etc.)
6. Confirm your password by re-entering it on the command line when prompted to input it again and
press ENTER. If the passwords match, you will be notified that the DT4000 G2 has been initialised
successfully. If the passwords do not match, you will receive a message indicating that you still
need to confirm the password correctly. To do so, repeat steps 5 and 6 until the passwords match.
After creating your password, a secure data volume (partition) will appear on the desktop.
indicates that the initialisation process was successful and is now complete. You may begin using the
DT4000 G2.
*Note: Certain distributions of Linux will require super-user (root) privileges in order to execute the
DT4000 G2 commands properly in the terminal application window.
