6. Installing Packages

First, access the Target Packages Location:cd /tmp/packages
To Check the Package are there:
ls | grep dkms
The grep Command Refine the output List showing only the entries Matching the Keyword.
Sure, the Group is exceding the needed Setup, so possibly you can remove some unnecessary Packages…
