-DrakX is a very big project, and it needs special setups to work.
-The purpose of this file is to explain how you can setup your box to make it
-compile and run.
--=-=--
-
-Beware, don't try this on a production machine with important data.
-
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Sources installation:
-
-  First grab the gi.tar.bz2 archive and untar it in your home directory,
-for example from DrakX-*.src.rpm on your Linux-Mandrake distribution.
-
-cd to gi
-for i in `du -a | grep CVS/Root | cut -f 2`
-do
-  sed -e 's/prigaux/anoncvs/' $i > $i.tmp
-  mv $i.tmp $i
-done
-
-Then, log yourself into the cvs:
-% export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@mandrakesoft.com:/home/cvs/cooker
-% cvs login
-% Passwd: cvs
-% cvs checkout gi
-
-And update the gi package:
-cvs update -P
-
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Preparing the compilation process:
-
-(1) target directory
-
-create a /export directory and copy a recent Mandrake-Linux CD in there.
-(You don't have to put have all the RPMS...) ; you'll need roughly 1.5
-Gbytes for a full install.
-
-[gc@obiwan ~/cvs/gi] su -c "mkdir /export"
-
-
-(2) devel packages
-
-you need quite a few devel packages to run the stuff; roughly: gcc, make,
-glibc-devel, perl-devel, XFree86-devel, libglib-devel, libgtk+-devel,
-perl-GTK, ldetect*, libslang-devel, libnewt-devel, e2fsprogs, dosfstools,
-rpm-devel, popt-devel, rpmtools.
-
-
-(3) sudo
-
-never build or run DrakX as root; install package sudo, and set up
-relevant permissions; the following should be enough: (in your
-/etc/sudoers)
-
-gc ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/patch,NOPASSWD:/bin/rpm,NOPASSWD:/bin/mount,NOPASSWD:/bin/cp,NOPASSWD:/bin/umount,NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/install,NOPASSWD:/bin/rm,NOPASSWD:/bin/mv,NOPASSWD:/bin/tar,NOPASSWD:/bin/cpio,NOPASSWD:/bin/chown,NOPASSWD:/bin/mkdir,NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/strip
-
-
-(4) boot kernel
-
-you need a boot kernel and some kind of modules for each boot floppy. it's
-located in subdirectory "kernel" in DrakX-*.src.rpm ; if you ever grab (or
-build) another boot kernel, re-do following step (c).
-
-	(a) build the packager software for stage1 (read README file to know what's stage1)
-	[gc@obiwan ~/cvs/gi] cd mdk-stage1/mar
-	[gc@obiwan ~/cvs/gi/mdk-stage1/mar] make
-
-	(b) build the perl stuff for stage2
-	[gc@obiwan ~/cvs/gi] cd perl-install
-	[gc@obiwan ~/cvs/gi/perl-install] make
-
-	(c) build kernel/modules stuff for stage1 and stage2
-	[gc@obiwan ~/cvs/gi] ./update_kernel
-
-
-(5) pray
-
-[gc@obiwan ~/cvs/gi] make
-
-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-The comments written with #- are automatically stripped out at install.
-
-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-testing all:
-
-  go to the perl-install directory and execute ./g_auto_install --test
-
-  You should be able to test the whole thing in a non-destructive way.
-
-NEVER compile and/or execute DrakX as root!
-
-
-
-
-Here is how I (dams) made it work on my computer.
