 ****************For Ubuntu***********************************

             In Ubuntu, the necessary packages are normally already installed. We recommend running      the following command before   installing Acronis Backup & Recovery 11:
         $sudo apt-get update
       
       
step 3: $sudo chmod 777 ABR11*

step 4: $sudo apt-get install alien     (if required)
step 5: $sudo ./(file name)
         example for file name:ABR11SL64_trial_en-US.x86_64
       
step 6:Agree the terms and conditions
step 7: enter the license key
step 8:installation process starts.
step 9: If any errors just $sudo apt-get upgrade 
step 10: run the acronis in console
             $sudo acronis_console        

step 11:
  Note: Still u have problems run the following
   

  1. Make sure you used a serial key for Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Advanced Server and not for Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Server for Linux (Standalone). The Standalone edition does not allow remote connection;

  2. Create the /mms directory manually:
    $mkdir -p /var/lib/Acronis/mms

  3. Check that the Acronis Linux Agent and Acronis Managed Machine services are started on the machine they are installed on:
    $sudo /etc/init.d/acronis_agent status
     $sudo  /etc/init.d/acronis_mms status

  4. If it is not, start them manually:
    $sudo /etc/init.d/acronis_agent start
     $sudo  /etc/init.d/acronis_mms start
  5. Check that the /tmp directory shows that it is mounted without the noexec option:
    $sudo mount | grep tmp
    If it is mounted with the noexec option, remount it:
    mount -o remount,exec[device_name]/tmp
