I resolved the problem(s) myself.
Meanwhile Linrad runs OK here.
In Red Hat 8.0 ( 2.4.20-13.8 ) there were just a
few minor hurdles :
( ref. : Leif's installation instructions )
:
1. " Tar xvf svga143.tar "
should be :
" tar xvf svga143.tar
".
( Tar is an unknown
command ).
2. " Tar xvf nasm.tar "
should be :
" tar xvf nasm.tar
".
( Tar is an unknown
command ).
3. " Tar xvf lirxxxx.tar "
:
should be
:
" tar xvf
lirxxxx.tar ".
( Tar is an unknown
command ).
4. " gunzip lirxxxx.tgz
"
should be
:
" bunzip2
lirxxxx.tbz "
Leif's
downloadable is .tbz and not .tgz .
So, gunzip
does not work.
Instead, use
bunzip2 ( I found this in /root/user/bin....) and it does work
OK.
5. I found that downloading within
Linux of svaglib and linrad ( as well as nasm, if necessary ) offers
the possibility of
dragging within the GUI ( one drag and one click ) instead of laborious
mounting
thru FDD.
This saves 19 mounting
related commands.
6. Maybe my two cents under
## 1,2,3,4 are stated by Leif separately, somewhere outside the installation
instruction
pages, but I couldn't find these.
Maybe this helps
for future newbies in RH 8.0.
