Just to try and keep the traffic down:

1) This is already mentioned on the wiki; see the Python section here:

http://m5sim.org/wiki/index.php/Compiling_M5#Required_Software

If this section needs to be expanded or highlighted somehow, please let us
know (or better yet sign up for a wiki account and do it yourself!).

2) I just answered this same question on the list two days ago:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.m5.users/1727

There are several options for searching the list archives for answers, see:
