2. Run ./configure to generate config.h and the various Makefiles.
- ./configure --help gives a list of possible options with slightly
- longer descriptions in README.configure
+ ./configure --help gives a list of possible options. Note, in

+ it is much more complicated than that (unfortunately).
- You might look at the "defaultconfig" file in the top directory.
+ You might look at the "defaultconfig" file in the examples directory.
It is an example of what is probably reasonable for defaults.
Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
CFLAGS="-g -Wall" ./configure --enable-smartalloc --enable-mysql

- 3. set any other main preferences (normally, you don't do this):
+ 3. Carefully review the output from ./configure. If it is not
+ what you want, re-run the ./configure. Often ./configure "caches"
+ things and thus remembers the last ./configure options. If you
+ want to be sure you are starting fresh after a ./configure,
+ do a:
+
+ make distclean
+
+ before re-running ./configure. "make distclean" wipes out any
+ knowledge of the ./configure, so don't do it after you have a
+ configuration that suits your needs, otherwise the "make" will
+ not work.
+
+ 4. Set any other main preferences (normally, you don't do this):
Edit "config.h" if you didn't use ./configure options
If you're cross-compiling, edit the following in "config.h"

numbering conventions, but rather one that I started in
1970. My internal releases were 0.nn, the first release to
another user was 1.0, each modified source code release then
-gets a new minor release (1.1, ...) as well as a date. Each
+gets a new minor release (1.1, 1.2, ...) as well as a date. Each
major change in the software -- e.g. new tape format will
normally have the major release number incremented.

./startit
./console (or ./gnome-console)
Well, it is all just a bit more complicated than that,
but you should have the idea.
+
+Be sure you read the chapter about testing your tape drive!
+Don't waste a lot of time setting up and running Bacula, if
+your drive is not supported.
+
+FreeBSD users, pay special attention to the Device configuration
+parameters needed to deal with FreeBSD tape drivers.

take care,

-# that.
