### Install the Solana Beta App
For those of you that enjoy life on the edge, you can use the command-line to
install the latest Solana Ledger app release before it has been validated by
the Ledger team and made available via Ledger Live. Note that because the app
is not installed via Ledger Live, you will need to approve installation from an
"unsafe" manager, as well as see the message, "This app is not genuine" each
time you open the app. Once the app is available on Ledger Live, you can
reinstall the app from there, and the message will no longer be displayed.
1. Connect your Ledger device via USB and enter your pin to unlock it
2. Download and run the Solana Ledger app installer:
```text
curl -sSLf https://github.com/solana-labs/ledger-app-solana/releases/download/v0.2.0/install.sh | sh
```
3. When prompted, approve the "unsafe" manager on your device
4. When prompted, approve the installation on your device
5. An installation window appears and your device will display "Processing..."
6. The app installation is confirmed
If you encounter the following error:
```text
Traceback (most recent call last):

OSError: open failed
```
To fix, check the following:
1. Ensure your Ledger device is connected to USB
2. Ensure your Ledger device is unlocked and not waiting for you to enter your pin
3. Ensure the Ledger Live application is not open
