Linux

On Linux we are distributing these tools as RPM packages and, as GNU-compliant tarballs. You can find these in the distribution CDROM in the directory i686-linux-pc-gnu/RPMS and i686-pc-linux-gnu/SOURCES

If you are installing from RPM, the following procedure should work. Note that we install some of the prerequisite programs before we install Genie, Aladdin and Afreet.

	$ su
	Password: ultra-sucure
	# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
	# rpm --upgrade /mnt/cdrom/i686-linux-pc/RPMS/genie-0.99.4-0.rpm
	# rpm --upgrade /mnt/cdrom/i686-linux-pc/RPMS/aladdin-0.60-0.rpm
	# rpm --upgrade /mnt/cdrom/i686-linux-pc/RPMS/afreet-2.2-0.rpm
	# rpm --upgrade /mnt/cdrom/i686-linux-pc/RPMS/chroMX-0.2-0.rpm
	# rpm --upgrade /mnt/cdrom/i686-linux-pc/RPMS/MPgenie-0.1-0.rpm  

Your system might be set up to mount the CDROM onto a different mountpoint, like /cdrom, in which case the mount command above might look different.

The rpm command can be used with the --upgrade option even if you are installing from scratch.
