There are two ways: you can either use the SourceDirectory field to
indicate where the Compile and Install phases should be run from, or
you can do something like

  cd hdfeos5; ./install.sh

in your Compile and/or Install phase.  The commands there are executed one
line at a time, so you need the cd command on the same line as the script
execution.
