Install
script
There are two kinds of command-line arguments to Install
, which
you can use to direct its operation:
bin
) and source code (source
). If you
don't specify either of these, Install
assumes you want
both source and binaries.
Install
has options to let you choose them explicitly.
The steps are
extract
)
fixincludes
)
test
)
fixincludes
and test
) are
not needed for cross-development configurations. (A
cross-development configuration runs on a host, but is meant to
develop code for another platform, the target. Cross development
tapes have `target = target' on the tape label.)
These two actions can only run on your host. If you read the
tape on another machine, you must specify the extract
option
explicitly, to indicate that you don't expect the
other two actions
to run (and are aware of the need to run further installation steps on
your host).
Install
also has two command line options: `-tape' and
`-installdir'. You can use these to adapt the installation to
your system.
