.TH INSTALL 1
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
install \- notes about Plan 9 from User Space installation
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B
|
|
cd \*9; ./INSTALL
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
To obtain the Plan 9 tree, use CVS
|
|
(see
|
|
.IR cvs (1))
|
|
or download a tar file from
|
|
.HR http://swtch.com/plan9port "" .
|
|
.PP
|
|
In the root of the tree, run
|
|
.BR ./INSTALL .
|
|
This script first uses
|
|
.IR make (1)
|
|
to build the Plan 9 build program
|
|
.IR mk (1)
|
|
if necessary.
|
|
It cleans all previously built object files and libraries out of the tree,
|
|
rebuilds and installs everything, and then cleans up.
|
|
.PP
|
|
There are a few files in tree which have the root
|
|
hard-coded in them.
|
|
After the build,
|
|
.I INSTALL
|
|
edits these files to replace the string
|
|
.B /usr/local/plan9
|
|
with the name of the root of the current tree.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Finally,
|
|
.I INSTALL
|
|
builds an HTML version of the manual and installs it in
|
|
.BR \*9/man .
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I INSTALL
|
|
can safely be repeated to rebuild the system from scratch.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The system uses different threading implementations on Linux 2.6 and
|
|
later kernels than on 2.4 and earlier;
|
|
and on FreeBSD 5 and later kernels than on FreeBSD 4 and earlier.
|
|
Running binaries from one class on another may not work.
