Rearranged code to make it more readable.
Added in Redhat install instructions, and made note in Other Distro's section to check the Redhat page if you are using Mandrake, as it is Redhat-based. Updated FTP list in the docs, only 1 link different from the most recent ANNOUNCE, wow! Added instructions on un-tarring, compiling, and installing wine from a tarball.

FIXME: Explain how to un-tar, compile, and install Wine from a tarball.
|
||||
Once you have downloaded this, you must first compile wine, and then install it.
|
||||
To do this is not very hard. First switch to the directory containing the file
|
||||
you just downloaded. Then extract the source with (e.g.):
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<screen>
|
||||
# tar xzvf wine-20021031.tar.gz
|
||||
</screen>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
Then, switch to the directory that was created and compile it by typing (e.g.):
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<screen>
|
||||
# ./tools/wineinstall
|
||||
</screen>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
NOTE: You must make sure that you are not the superuser (root) when doing this,
|
||||
and that you have write permission to the directory that was created by the tar
|
||||
command as well as all of its subdirectories and files..
