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. - The purpose of the document is to make 
the job easy for the system administrators to install mifos on Linix OS, 
who may not have an idea to run build scripts. 
* RHEL 5 comes with MySQL 5, but it is advised to use RPMs directly
off dev.mysql.com. Why? - thanks for pointing it out Adam, we will update 
the document saying that " if MySql is not allready dowonloaded with RHEL 
5 then download MySql from the MySql website.
* 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. - thanks, we will try not to copy/paste from 
word.
* What is 08-30-2007-rev12085-DBv149.sql ? - 
https://mifos.dev.java.net/servlets/ProjectDocumentView?documentID=66543&showInfo=true

* a native English speaker should proofread this document. I can help
with that if you want once we've settled on the content. - Thanks for your 
help.  

> While reviewing and validating the document, we encountered a bug
[...]

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. - We thought to remove the 
issues from the document when they were fixed, thats the reason we kept 
them as a Note at the end, we will put this issues at the given link by 
you, and double check about these issues if they still exists.

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

Thank you!
