- @title = 'Install Bitmask on Linux'
<%= render :partial => 'notice' %>
## Install as packages
This is the recommended method of installing Bitmask. If installed as a package, Bitmask will run faster, be better integrated in the system, and will be kept up to date.
### Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr)
<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'trusty'}) %>
### Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander)
<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'saucy'}) %>
### Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail)
<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'raring'}) %>
### Debian 7.0 (Wheezy)
<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'wheezy'}) %>
### Debian 8.0 (Jessie)
<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'jessie'}) %>
## Install stand-alone bundle
Alternately, you can run Bitmask from a stand alone bundle. This is useful if want to run Bitmask from a thumb drive. The bundle should work on most recent Linux distributions that are derived from Debian (e.g. Ubuntu, Mint, etc).
There are several disadvantages to the stand-alone bundle:
* Installing via the bundle takes up more space.
* The Bitmask app will be less well integrated with the desktop environment.
* Running from the bundle is slower to start than via packages.
* You will not get automatic updates running the stand alone bundle.
How do you tell if you running a 32 bit or 64 bit kernel? Run the following command:
uname -m
If the result is:
* `x86_64`, you have **64 bit**
* `i686`, you have **32 bit**
* `i386`, you have **32 bit**
### 32 bit kernel
<%= render({:partial => 'common/download_button'}, {:link => '/client/linux/Bitmask-linux32-latest.tar.bz2', :text => 'Download 32 bit'}) %>
### 64 bit kernel
<%= render({:partial => 'common/download_button'}, {:link => '/client/linux/Bitmask-linux64-latest.tar.bz2', :text => 'Download 64 bit'}) %>
### Other options
If you want to install an old or development version of Bitmask, you can [browse all releases.](/client/linux/)
