The GRASS4.15 for Linux was compiled in my Linux box with the
following configuration:
Slackware 3.0
kernel 1.2.13
gcc 2.7.0
libc 5.0.9
flex 3.5.2
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

THE LINUX GRASS 4.15 BINARIES ONLY WORK ON ELF-LINUX. THE BINARIES MAY
NOT WORK WITH EARLY VERSION OF KERNEL AND/OR GCC AND FLEX.
The binaries was tared and gziped, then split into 9 (close to 1.3 MB
- 1200 x 1K block) files named from linuxg.aa to linuxg.ai.
You should ftp all the linuxg.a* in binary mode and also get this
readme file and an installation script - install.sh. Please put all
of these files in the same directory - source directory.
At the source directory under the UNIX prompt, type
sh ./install.sh full_path_to_the_destination_directory
and it should automatically unzip and untar the linuxg.a* files to the
destination directory and also edit several site-specific files. The
total space your need is about 26 MB.
At the destination directory, your can find the grass4.1 script. It
should have been modified to reflect your installation directory.
Now, either move/copy the grass4.1 file to one of your PATH or use the
link command as below:
cd /usr/local/bin
ln -s destination_directory/etc/grass4.1 grass4.1
Now, you are ready to start GRASS by typing grass4.1 and you should
know how to run GRASS afterward.
There is a readme directory in the destination_directory/etc
directory. This directory has several readme files that come with
some incoming commands. You can find all the compiled commands of
this binaries in the commands.readme file. I can't guarantee that all
of them work but I have tested lots of them. If you find some
commands that don't work, please post a message on the grass user
group and we can solve it all together.
