If you have well configured texmf subsystem (in all linux
distributions I know it is done), the only thing you should do is to put .mf
sources in apropriate directory, for instance the one you typed above. Then
you should update list of directory tree - there is a file ls-R which
contains it for the whole tree is too big to search every time you use tex
or mf. Command texhash does the job. .tfm and .pk files will be created (and
later possibly deleted) automagically.
Good luck,
