IT is working, but you a right - it is not fun to install. The way I
managed to make it work in less than an hour was by ignoring the install
script completely - move all un tared files in
/usr/local/frontpage/version.30 and make /usr/local/frontpage/current... to
point to the new directory.

I did have 2.0 installed earlier and the above worked just fine.
