-      <title>Installation Procedure</title>
-      <p>When installed, the entire system, except for a small start-up
-        script, resides in a single directory tree. The location of this
-        directory tree can be chosen arbitrarily by the installer, and it
-        does not need to be in the user's <c>$PATH</c>. The only requirements
-        are that the file system where it is placed has enough free space,
-        and that the users who run Erlang/OTP have read access to it. In the
-        example below, the directory tree is assumed to be located at
-        <c>/usr/local/erlang</c>, which is here called the <em>top-level directory</em>.</p>
-      <p>It is assumed that you have the compressed tar file, the name of
-        which is <c><![CDATA[<PREFIX>.tar.gz]]></c>, where <c><![CDATA[<PREFIX>]]></c> is a string
-        denoting the particular Erlang/OTP release, e.g.
-        <c>otp_LXA_11930_sunos5_R9B</c>.</p>
-      <p>Wherever the string <c><![CDATA[<PREFIX>]]></c> is used below, it should
-        be replaced by the actual name prefix of the compressed tar file.</p>
-      <p>The tape archive file does not have one single directory in which
-        all other files are rooted. Therefore the tape archive file must be
-        extracted into an empty (newly created) directory.</p>
-      <list type="ordered">
-        <item>
-          <p>If the <em>top-level directory</em> does not already exist,
-            create it:</p>
-          <pre>
-mkdir /usr/local/erlang</pre>
-        </item>
-        <item>
-          <p>Change the current directory to the <em>top level directory</em>:</p>
-          <pre>
-cd /usr/local/erlang</pre>
-        </item>
-        <item>
-          <p>Create the <em>installation directory</em> with an appropriate
-            name. For example:</p>
-          <pre>
-mkdir otp_r7b</pre>
-        </item>
-        <item>
-          <p>Change to the <em>installation directory</em>, e.g.</p>
-          <pre>
-cd otp_r7b</pre>
-        </item>
-        <item>
-          <p>Assuming the compressed tar file resides in the directory
-            <c><![CDATA[<SOME-DIR>]]></c>,. extract the compressed tar file into the
-            current directory:</p>
-          <pre>
-gunzip -c &lt;SOME-DIR&gt;/&lt;PREFIX&gt;.tar.gz | tar xfp -</pre>
-        </item>
-        <item>
-          <p>Read the <c>README</c> file in the installation directory for
-            last minute updates, before proceeding.</p>
-        </item>
-        <item>
-          <p>Run the <c>Install</c> script in the installation directory,
-            with the absolute path of the installation directory as argument,</p>
-          <pre>
-./Install /usr/local/erlang/otp_r7b</pre>
-          <p>and supply answers to the prompts.</p>
-          <p>In most cases, there is a default answer in square brackets
-            (<c>[]</c>). If the default is satisfactory, just press
-            <c><![CDATA[<Return>]]></c>. In general you are only prompted for one thing:</p>
-          <list type="bulleted">

-
-                In a minimal system, only the Kernel and STDLIB applications
-                are loaded and started. If the SASL startup is used, the SASL
-                application is included as well. Normally, the minimal system
-                is enough.</p>
