How to Use the Examples
=======================

To run the examples in this directory, you will first need to copy the
subdirectories containing the examples to a directory, in which you have
write permission. In addition to the files in the example-directories,
you will need the installation CDs (or DVD) of the distribution used in
the example. An image of the CDs (or DVD) will work too.

Because not all examples are standalone, it is probably best if you copy
all examples. You should copy CDROM.images to avoid errors.

The following discussion assumes you have copied everything in this
directory and have installed FAUmachine.

To run an experiment, change into the respective directory and type 
	make experiment

The experiments called "install-*" will install the named distribution
onto a newly created virtual machine. The machine will be created in the
current directory.

Errors may occur
	* if the installation CD (or DVD) cannot be found
	* if the CDROM.images directory or files therein are missing
	* if there is not enough diskspace in the current directory for the
	  virtual machine's harddisks, the virtual machine's main memory
	  and VGA memory files
	* and probably because of some other things, too.
