[Insight-users] Beginning installation question

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Bill,

A lateral comment first:

  are you doing this intallation while
  being logged as "root" ?
  It may be better to be logged as a normal user...
  This should not be the source of the error though.

It looks like you created a subdirectory on the
top directory of the Insight source tree and tried
to use it as a binary dir.

This might be the source of the problem. Please
create the binary dir completely outside of the
Insight directory.

for example:

put Insight in "src":

    /home/bill/src/Insight

and build in "bin"

    /home/bill/bin/Insight


Please let us know if you have further questions.

Thanks


Luis
