Hi Albert, I have used the default --prefix option. (i.e. ./configure without any --prefix option)
I did modifications in two Makefiles to complete the "make install" step those file were bmc-watchdog/Makefile ipmi-pef-config/src/Makefile the changes that i did was (in the ipmi-pef-config/src/Makefile ) previous: $(install_sh) -d -m 755 $(DESTDIR)/$(sbindir) cp -d ./pef-config $(DESTDIR)/$(sbindir) modified to: $(install_sh) -d -m 755 $(DESTDIR)$(sbindir) cp -d ./pef-config $(DESTDIR)$(sbindir) I did this steps manually [as these Makefiles were generated automatically after ./configure]. After doing above two steps all the exe's were installed to the location /usr/local/sbin/. when i run commands likes ipmimonitoring or ipmi-sensors, it is giving me error like "permission denied" Thanks and Regards, Sandeep Kumar Patra On Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 7:53 PM, Al Chu <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Sandeep, > > >From the README.build file > > ---- > By default files will typically be installed in /usr/local (binaries > in /usr/local/bin, libraries in /usr/local/lib, configuration files in > /usr/local/etc/, etc.).
