I was not able to get the install working -- I just copied the CD-ROM. From memory, as root with the CD-ROM mounted on /cdrom 1. cp -r /cdrom/applix /usr/local/lib (need 500MB free to do this) 2. echo /usr/local/lib > /etc/applixprefix 3. cd /usr/local/bin 4. ln -s /usr/local/lib/applix/bin/applix . 5. Modify /usr/local/lib/applix/bin/applix as follows a. Change ``ldd'' to ``/compat/linux/usr/bin/ldd'' b. Change ``/bin/bash'' to ``/usr/local/bin/bash'' (if necessary) Applixware took about 500MB of disk space. By removing unwanted foreign language support (spelling dictionaries), I was able to reduce the disk requirements to about 240MB. Here's what I did to free up 260MB (I left support in for a few languages). 1. cd /usr/local/lib/applix/axdata 2. /bin/rm -rf grm frn 3. cd /usr/local/lib/applix/axlang 4. /bin/rm -f brz* cfr* dan* dut* fin* frn* 5. /bin/rm -f itl* nrw* nyn* prt* spn* swd* Hope this helps. YMMV. -- Regards, Norman C. Rice, Jr. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
