=========================================================================== Getting the files: =========================================================================== Get the contents of the directories base* and goodies* either to floppy disks (these may have any filesystem you can mount), or copy the whole base* and goodies* directories somewhere into your filesystem. Example1: mcopy base1/* a: mcopy base2/* a: mcopy goodies1/* a: ... Example2: (assuming GNU-tar and /dev/fd0 as floppy device) On the host containing the base* and goodies* directories: tar Mcvf /dev/fd0 base* goodies* On the host where you want to install teTeX: tar Mxvf /dev/fd0 =========================================================================== A) floppy installation: =========================================================================== Instructions: - become root, if you need privileges (mounting floppys, writing to the filesystem) - copy install.sh from disk base1 to /tmp (or somewhere else) - execute install.sh and follow the instructions there (the script has some on-line-help) Example: % cd /tmp % su # mcopy a:install.sh . # sh install.sh =========================================================================== B) installation from a mounted directory =========================================================================== Instructions: - make sure, you have a directory that holds the teTeX distribution. This directory needs to have the subdirectories base1, base2, goodies1, goodies2, goodies3 and the files of the distribution. - execute install.sh from this directory Example: % mkdir -p /usr/local/teTeX-dist/base{1,2} % mkdir /usr/local/teTeX-dist/goodies{1,2,3} ... copy the files into the newly created directories ... % cd /usr/local/teTeX-dist/base1 % sh install.sh
