We need to log in through SSH. I am not going into too much detail here as there are lots of tutorials on the specifics. I use Putty for my terminal connection. Just install the free software and then initialize the program. You will be asked for the IP address and make sure the port is set to 22. Hit enter and a terminal window will appear. We want to log in as odroid with the password odroid. You should basically have the same terminal you would see on the gui. with the command prompt odroid@odroid~$ This means that you are in your home directory.

We have made a few changes so we want to run the command:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade

answer y when prompted.

We are now going to install the mysql by running the command:

sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client php5-mysql

you will be prompted to set a password for the user "root" do so when asked

we need to run two more commands:

sudo mysql_installation_db

sudo mysql_server_installation

just type y for each of the answers except changing the root user password answer no. We should now be ready to install the Seafile cloud software in the next step.
