Non-root install
[291 byte] By [mark.douglas] at [2007-11-26 10:32:50] 
I have been using the tech previews for some time, but can't use the latest version as the installer demands root access, which I don't have. Is there any way to coerce the installer into running as a mere user, or of extracting the compilers from the morass of .rpms?Thanks!

The installer can not run as a user other than root. However, you can use rpm2cpio to extract the contents of the RPMs and place them in a directory of your choice.TerryH at 2007-7-7 2:40:55 >

Hmmm, which installer you mean? There is no installer in SSE2. According to installation instructions, you just need to typebzcat DOWNLOAD-DIRECTORY/StudioExpress-OS-PLATFORM-DATE.tar.bz2 | /bin/tar -xf -in the directory of your choice.PAP_Fortran at 2007-7-7 2:40:55 >
