+
+ <section>
+ <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">
+ <item>
+ <p>"Do you want to use a minimal system startup instead of the
+ SASL startup?" <br></br>
+
+ 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>
+ </item>
+ </list>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Make Erlang/OTP available for users, either by putting the path
+ <c>/usr/local/erlang/otp_r7b/bin</c> in users <c>$PATH</c>
+ variable, or link the executable
+ <c>/usr/local/erlang/otp_r7b/bin/erl</c> accordingly, e.g.:</p>
+ <pre>
+ln -s /usr/local/erlang/otp_r7b/bin/erl /usr/local/bin/erl </pre>
