## Installing .NET Core on Linux
### Uninstall any Preview versions
If you have .NET Core Previews installed, it will need to be removed before attempting to install .NET Core 2.0. This can be done by running a command such as the following.
Then, update the package cache and install .NET Core
#### Fedora, CentOS and Oracle Linux
```bash
sudo yum update
sudo yum install dotnet-sdk-2.1.200
```
#### SUSE Enterprise Linux and OpenSUSE
```bash
sudo zypper update
sudo zypper install dotnet-sdk-2.1.200
```
**Note:** When installing the SDK, SUSE and OpenSUSE may report that nothing provides libcurl. libcurl should already be installed on supported versions of both distros. Run zypper search libcurl to confirm. The error will present 2 "solutions". Choose "Solution 2" to continue installing .NET Core.
## Installation from a binary archive
Installing from the packages detailed above is recommended and you can also install from binary archive. When using binary archives to install, the contents must be extracted to a user location such as `$HOME/dotnet` and a symbolic link created for `dotnet`.
```bash
mkdir -p $HOME/dotnet && tar zxf dotnet.tar.gz -C $HOME/dotnet
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/dotnet
```
## .NET Core Runtime-only installation
If only the .NET Core Runtime is needed, install `dotnet-runtime-2.0.7` using your package manager.
[DotNetCore.2.0.7-WindowsHosting.exe](https://download.microsoft.com/download/E/F/7/EF7302FE-4F84-4529-9E3A-893450F76501/DotNetCore.2.0.7-WindowsHosting.exe) (Updated to include ASP.NET Core 2.0.8)
On supported Linux systems, register the Microsoft Product feed as described above and install `dotnet-hosting-2.0.7` using your package manager.
This will also install the .NET Core Runtime and other required packages.
### ASP.NET Runtime Core Package Store
The Runtime Package Store is installed by the .NET Core SDK and the Windows Server Hosting installer. If you need to install the Runtime Package Store separately, the following can be used.
On Linux systems install `aspnetcore-store-2.0.8` using your package manager. This will install both the ASP.NET Core and .NET Core runtime components.
