Building and Installing the Engine

Install these packages if you don't have them already

Open a console, go to your quakeforge directory, and enter the following commands:

chmod u+x bootstrap   make the bootstrap file executable
./bootstrap           prepare for autoconf configuration
./configure           create automake files for QuakeForge
make                  compile quakeforge binaries
su -c "make install"  (be prepared to enter your root password)

Corel Linux users may need to add the --disable-xmms configure option:

./configure --disable-xmms

If either of the make commands fail because of errors, try adding the -k option:

make -k
su -c "make -k install"
