      Installation
    </h1>
    <p>&nbsp;</p>
    <h4>Using tarballs</h4>
    <p>
    You need:<br>
     - boson-code-XXX.tar.bz2<br>
     - boson-data-XXX.tar.bz2<br>
     - boson-music-XXX.tar.bz2 (optional)<br><br>
    You can also fetch boson-all-XXX.tar.bz2 which contains just everything.<br><br>

    Now you have to do that for every package:
    <pre>
    tar xjvf boson-YYY-XXX.tar.bz2
    cd "package_name"
    ./configure
    make
    su -c "make install"
    </pre>

    <br>
    <h4>Using CVS</h4>
    <p>
    CVS login:
    <pre>
    export CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous@cvs.boson.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/boson"
    cvs login
    </pre>
    Please just press the Enter key when you are prompted for a password.<br>
    Now you can checkout the source.<br>
    <pre>
    cvs -z3 co -P code
    cvs -z3 co -P data
    cvs -z3 co -P tools
    </pre>
    Compilation of code:
    <pre>
    cd code && ln -s ../tools/admin admin 
    make -f Makefile.cvs
    ./configure
    make
    su -c "make install"
    </pre>
    Compilation of data:
    <pre>
    cd data && ln -s ../tools/admin admin 
    make -f Makefile.cvs
    ./configure
    make
    su -c "make install"
    </pre>
    <br>
    <h4>RPM / binary releases</h4>
    <p>
    There are rpm packages available on our File Release site on SourceForge.<br>
    They are inofficial because we don't test them.<br>
    If you feel like building a RPM for boson (for any platform), we'll be happy to put a link here and/or add them to our site.<br>
