but the installation stops and i have to press ENTER to continue with the default parameters
1. Install for all users: YES (requires root password) 2. Installation directory: /opt/FreeFileSync 3. Create desktop shortcuts: NO _____________________________ Press a number [1-3] to change settings, ENTER to begin installation:
Is there an option for this part and accept the default parameters of the installation on Linux? Thanks
PD: I didn't find anything about linux in the documentation

If you cannot find anything in the documentation about that, you could use the program "expect" to script interacting with this install script. I haven't used expect in quite a while so cannot give you a specific example, but it would basically look for the line of text that represents the question "ENTER to begin installation:" and then it could "type in" the number 3. Or whatever your choices are.

that's exactly why I'm asking the question, to avoid using the expect command, which is what I currently do

There are more options. This command installs without interrupt:
