## Installing /e/OS
{% include alerts/tip.html content="For Windows users, we advise to use Git Bash. For more info about Downloads and Installation see [Official Documentation](https://git-scm.com/about)"%}

{% include alerts/danger.html content="axolotl comes with an anti-rollback feature. Please read the paragraph marked `Caution` in Requirements section of this guide, before you proceed to install /e/OS on axolotl." %}

1. Unzip the archive

    ```
    unzip <fileyoudownloaded>
    ```

   > In the command above, replace `<fileyoudownloaded>` with path of the downloaded archive.

   > Alternatively, you can unzip the archive using a File Manager/File Explorer.


1. Confirm that extracted directory contains following content:

    - `bin-linux-x86` directory - which contains linux tools including fastboot and adb
    - `bin-msys` directory - which contains Windows tools including fastboot and adb
    - `.img` files - The `.img` files that are to be flashed onto the device.
    - `flash_axolotl_factory.sh` - The installer script.

1. Boot into bootloader/fastboot mode.

    - Power OFF the device.
    - Hold `Power` + `Volume Down` button combo simultaneously.

1. Run the installer script on Terminal(Linux) or on Git Bash UI(Windows).
   {% include alerts/tip.html content="Executing the `chmod` command may require root or `sudo` privileges."%}
    - Make sure you are in the current directory which contains the `flash_axolotl_factory.sh` file.
    - **Linux** 
        - Right click -> Open terminal here
    - **Windows**
        - Right click -> Git Bash here
    - Execute the following command:
        ```
        chmod +x flash_axolotl_factory.sh && ./flash_axolotl_factory.sh
        ```

       The script will flash all required files.


1. Enjoy! The device will now reboot automatically on /e/OS.
