Jump to the section on installing the source package, RPM, or BSD package. There's also an overview of the directory tree RPilot builds.
To install from the source archive, start by unpacking the tarball
(something like tar xvzf rpilot-1.4.1.tar.gz should work). Change to
the newly-created directory. Execute make and all should go fine.
To install into the destination directories, do make install.
RPilot by default installs under /usr/local. To put it elsewhere
(for example, if you're not the superuser), run the install phase with
make install INSTALL_DIR=/the/new/dir/. Be sure to include a
trailing slash ("/") in the directory name.
To uninstall, run make uninstall. If you installed it in
a directory other than the default, use
make uninstall INSTALL_DIR=/the/new/dir (or just change the
value of INSTALL_DIR in the Makefile).
rpm -i rpilot-1.4.1-1.i386.rpm will install RPilot under
/usr/local. To put it somewhere else, use
rpm --prefix /the/new/dir -i rpilot-1.4.1-1.i386.rpm.
To uninstall, just use the standard rpm command, eg
rpm -e rpilot
Just do a pkg_add rpilot-1.4.1.tgz as the superuser. Everything is
installed under /usr/local. To put it somewhere else, use
pkg_add -p /the/new/dir/ rpilot-1.4.1.tgz.
To uninstall, use pkg_delete rpilot-1.4.1.
For a standard install, the Root will be /usr/local. Otherwise,
it's whatever you chose.
