Hi Nagesh!

Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and help! I moved the content to
the wiki where it can be edited and revised in a sandbox:

http://www.mifos.org/developers/wiki/RHELInstallNotes

This is a more appropriate place for rough drafts. I might have made
errors in the transition to reStructured Text, so please take a look
and let me know if it looks ok.

"The wiki" basically means anything with a URL starting with
http://mifos.org/developers/wiki/ . The other areas are for more
permanent, reviewed content managed by folks besides developers. Your
content may eventually replace the "Linux Install Notes", but we
should kick around a few revisions first.

A few comments:
* Is this meant to be a installation guide, ie: "This is How To
Install Mifos", or more of just your experiences installing Mifos on
RHEL 4/5? If the former, the review process for this type of document
is a bit more rigorous. If the latter, there may still be a place on
the wiki for this information.
* RHEL 5 comes with MySQL 5, but it is advised to use RPMs directly
off dev.mysql.com. Why?
* please use only 8-bit ASCII characters whenever possible. Cutting
and pasting from Word Processing programs is not recommended... try
using a plain text editor.
* What is 08-30-2007-rev12085-DBv149.sql ?
* a native English speaker should proofread this document. I can help
with that if you want once we've settled on the content.

Let's leave this out of the install notes. Please file bugs here:
http://mifos.dev.java.net/issues/ ...but see Nazir's reply; all unit
tests pass, and these upgrade scripts should not be executed manually.
The ant "build_db" task does the right thing.

I suppose there might be a missing or broken unit test.

Thank you!
