Appliance Installers

The preferred and easiest way to create a working Rivendell system is to use one of the standard "appliance" installers provided by Paravel Systems. The following Linux distributions are supported:

Ubuntu 22.04 "Jammy Jellyfish" (also works with Linux Mint 21)

Ubuntu 24.04 "Noble Numbat"

RedHat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL-7) (also works with CentOS 7)

RedHat Enterprise Linux 8 (RHEL-8) (also works with Rocky Linux 8)


Building from Source

The "appliance" installations listed above can also be used as a basis for creating a development instance capable of building Rivendell from its original sources. While not recommended for use in production "on the air" environments, such a development instance can be extremely useful for testing new features or bugfixes that have been committed to the GitHub repository but not yet released in the pre-built packages.

Legacy/Deprecated Installs

The following items apply to the deprecated v3.x versions of Rivendell, on various "not officially supported" distributions.

Ubuntu

Rivendell 3.x on Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) and Linux Mint 19.3

Legacy Rivendell 3.6.x on Ubuntu18 04 covers how to compile from source and install Rivendell 3 (v3.6.8) on Ubuntu 18.04. It has been reported these instructions also work on Linux Mint 19.3.

Upgrading to Rivendell 4.x on Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) and Linux Mint 19.3

Debian

The following pages describe how to install Rivendell from source on a Debian system.

Rivendell 3.x on Debian 10 (Buster)

This page quickly relates how to install Rivendell 3 (v3.2.0) on Debian10.

Rivendell 3.x on Debian 9 (Stretch)

This page quickly relates how to install Rivendell 3 (v3.0.3) on Debian9.
