Identifying Your Platform

To download the correct LPI binary, you need to know your operating system and architecture. Here's how to identify them.

Windows

Check your architecture:

  1. Press Win + Pause/Break or right-click "This PC" → Properties
  2. Look for "System type":
    • 64-bit operating system → Download lpi-windows-x64.exe
    • 32-bit operating system → Not supported (Windows 10+ required)

Command line method:

wmic os get osarchitecture

macOS

Check your processor type:

  1. Click Apple menu → About This Mac
  2. Look for "Processor" or "Chip":
    • Apple M1/M2/M3 → Download lpi-darwin-arm64
    • Intel processor → Download lpi-darwin-x64

Command line method:

uname -m
  • arm64 → Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3)
  • x86_64 → Intel

Linux

Check your architecture:

uname -m

Common results:

  • x86_64 or amd64 → Download lpi-linux-x64
  • aarch64 or arm64 → Download lpi-linux-arm64
  • armv7l → Download lpi-linux-arm (32-bit ARM)
  • i386 or i686 → Not supported

Check your Linux distribution:

cat /etc/os-release

LPI works on most modern Linux distributions including:

  • Ubuntu 18.04+
  • Debian 9+
  • CentOS/RHEL 7+
  • Fedora
  • Arch Linux
  • Alpine Linux

Not Sure?

If you're still unsure, try this command (works on Linux/macOS):

echo "OS: $(uname -s), Arch: $(uname -m)"
