Both distributions give me a bunch of directories and scrits, but no

you can put the minimal context in for instance

  mkdir /mytex

after that run

  . /mytex/setuptex /mytex

make sure that the file in /mytex/texmf-linux/bin path have the x flag set

  texexec --make --all

should work then


This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00b-pretest-20020211-HO20020731-2.1 (Web2C 
7.3.7)
kpathsea: Running mktexfmt  cont-en.efmt
fmtutil: no info for format `cont-en'.
Sorry, I can't find the format `cont-en.efmt'; will try `context.efmt'.
kpathsea: Running mktexfmt  context.efmt
fmtutil: no info for format `context'.
I can't find the format file `context.efmt'!

strange, we have a newer pdftex version now; also, efmt is replaced by fmt

I already have a working distribution of TeX on my system. I know I need
to move some directories around and set up PATH to find the executable,
but I am at a loss what to move.

you can keep the minimal context in a separate three; the setup script isolates it from other tex's on your system


Could you cc me? I am not a part of the mailing list yet. I subscribed
