-
-This page covers detailed instructions on using and configuring the installation script named `kickstart-static64.sh`.
-
-This method uses a pre-compiled static binary to install Netdata on any Intel/AMD 64bit Linux system and on any Linux
-distribution, even those with a broken or unsupported package manager.
-
-To install Netdata from a static binary package, including all dependencies required to connect to Netdata Cloud, and
-get _automatic nightly updates_, run the following as your normal user:
-
-```bash
-bash <(curl -Ss https://my-netdata.io/kickstart-static64.sh)
-```
-
-> This script installs Netdata at `/opt/netdata`.
-
-> See our [installation guide](/packaging/installer/README.md) for details about [automatic
-> updates](/packaging/installer/README.md#automatic-updates) or [nightly vs. stable
-> releases](/packaging/installer/README.md#nightly-vs-stable-releases).
-
-## What does `kickstart-static64.sh` do?
-
-The `kickstart.sh` script does the following after being downloaded and run:
-
-- Checks to see if there is an existing installation, and if there is updates that in preference to reinstalling.
-- Downloads the latest Netdata binary from the [binary-packages](https://github.com/netdata/binary-packages)
- repository. You can also run any of these `.run` files with [makeself](https://github.com/megastep/makeself).
-- Installs Netdata by running `./netdata-installer.sh` from the source tree, including any options you might have
- added.
-- Installs `netdata-updater.sh` to `cron.daily` to enable automatic updates, unless you added the `--no-updates`
- option.
-- Prints a message about whether the installation succeeded for failed for QA purposes.
-
-If your shell fails to handle the above one-liner, you can download and run the `kickstart-static64.sh` script manually.
-
-```sh
-# download the script with curl
-curl https://my-netdata.io/kickstart-static64.sh >/tmp/kickstart-static64.sh
-
-# or, download the script with wget
-wget -O /tmp/kickstart-static64.sh https://my-netdata.io/kickstart-static64.sh
-
-# run the downloaded script (any sh is fine, no need for bash)
-sh /tmp/kickstart-static64.sh
-```
-
-## Optional parameters to alter your installation
-
-The `kickstart-static64.sh` script passes all its parameters to `netdata-installer.sh`, which you can use to customize
-your installation. Here are a few important parameters:
-
-- `--dont-wait`: Enable automated installs by not prompting for permission to install any required packages.
-- `--dont-start-it`: Prevent the installer from starting Netdata automatically.
-- `--stable-channel`: Automatically update only on the release of new major versions.
-- `--nightly-channel`: Automatically update on every new nightly build.
-- `--disable-telemetry`: Opt-out of [anonymous statistics](/docs/anonymous-statistics.md) we use to make
- Netdata better.
-- `--no-updates`: Prevent automatic updates of any kind.
-- `--reinstall`: If an existing installation is detected, reinstall instead of attempting to update it. Note
- that this cannot be used to switch between installation types.
-- `--local-files`: Used for [offline installations](/packaging/installer/methods/offline.md). Pass four file paths:
- the Netdata tarball, the checksum file, the go.d plugin tarball, and the go.d plugin config tarball, to force
- kickstart run the process using those files. This option conflicts with the `--stable-channel` option. If you set
- this _and_ `--stable-channel`, Netdata will use the local files.
-
-### Connect node to Netdata Cloud during installation
-
-The `kickstart.sh` script accepts additional parameters to automatically [connect](/claim/README.md) your node to Netdata
-Cloud immediately after installation. Find the `token` and `rooms` strings by [signing in to Netdata
-Cloud](https://app.netdata.cloud/sign-in?cloudRoute=/spaces), then clicking on **Connect Nodes** in the [Spaces management
-area](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/cloud/spaces#manage-spaces).
-
-- `--claim-token`: The unique token associated with your Space in Netdata Cloud.
-- `--claim-rooms`: A comma-separated list of tokens for each War Room this node should appear in.
-- `--claim-proxy`: Should take the form of `socks5[h]://[user:pass@]host:ip` for a SOCKS5 proxy, or
- `http://[user:pass@]host:ip` for an HTTP(S) proxy.See [connecting through a
- proxy](/claim/README.md#connect-through-a-proxy) for details.
-- `--claim-url`: Defaults to `https://app.netdata.cloud`.
-
-For example:
-
-```bash
-bash <(curl -Ss https://my-netdata.io/kickstart-static64.sh) --claim-token=TOKEN --claim-rooms=ROOM1,ROOM2
-```
-
-## Verify script integrity
-
-To use `md5sum` to verify the integrity of the `kickstart-static64.sh` script you will download using the one-line
-command above, run the following:
-
-```bash
-[ "78461a3055aee03011a577a716e2dee5" = "$(curl -Ss https://my-netdata.io/kickstart-static64.sh | md5sum | cut -d ' ' -f 1)" ] && echo "OK, VALID" || echo "FAILED, INVALID"
-```
-
-If the script is valid, this command will return `OK, VALID`.
-
-## What's next?
-
-When you're finished with installation, check out our [single-node](/docs/quickstart/single-node.md) or
-[infrastructure](/docs/quickstart/infrastructure.md) monitoring quickstart guides based on your use case.
-
-Or, skip straight to [configuring the Netdata Agent](/docs/configure/nodes.md).
-
-Read through Netdata's [documentation](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs), which is structured based on actions and
-solutions, to enable features like health monitoring, alarm notifications, long-term metrics storage, exporting to
-external databases, and more.
