After editing your configuration file to reflect your installation preferences, you can run the installer. The command-line installer requires you to accept the Xilinx End-User License Agreement (EULA). Your chosen product selects theThird Party End-User License Agreement notices.

When using the command line, use the command-line switch, -a or --agree, to indicate your agreement to each of the above. Omitting an item or not specifying the agree switch causes the installer to exit with an error.

Batch Mode Installation Using Single-File Download

This is an example of the command line for a typical new installation using a configuration file.
xsetup --agree XilinxEULA,3rdPartyEULA 
--batch Install --config install_config.txt
If using an AMD default configuration, you don't need --config. However, you must specify the destination directory on the command line.
xsetup --agree 3rdPartyEULA,XilinxEULA 
--batch Install --edition "Vitis Unified Software Platform" --location "/home/Xilinx"

The above command uses the default configuration options for the edition specified. To see the default configuration options, use the –b ConfigGen mode as described above. The batch mode of the installer can also uninstall and upgrade (add additional tools and devices). For the full list of the options in the installer batch mode, run xsetup -h or xsetup --help.
