Introduction

This page contains some additional installation hints for installing on a Fedora or Redhat based system.

For installing the packages, simply open a console window with administration rights (a so called "root console") and paste the lines below into the console.

yum is the command-line version of the software installation center. Pasting the lines into a window is much easier than selecting the packages via the GUI :-) plus for the server you need additional Python packages which are not available via the software installation center.
