However, playing with 5.0 DR 2, during install I get two errors--one about a README --I get that one in 4.7 as well, without it causing problems. However, in 5.0 there's another error message, (I'm not being more specific because this was more of a casual attempt on a sacrificial box to see what would and wouldn't work) and I can't get it to run even as root. >=20 > Does anyone know what permissions problems this might indicate? FWIW, on the successful installs, I more or less followed their Linux install instructions--I'd download it somewhere, as root, untar it into /tmp then as user simply do ./install.
