Working on a Dell 390n (x86_64 architecture) running Red Hat Enterprise
Linux version 4, I have been trying to install Sage from
sage-2.8.2-debian64-x86_64-Linux.tar.gz, following instructions in the
Installation Guide (release 2007.08.22).  After doing tar zxvf
sage-2.8.2-debian64-x86_64-Linux.tar.gz, I changed to the
sage-2.8.2-debian64-x86_64-Linux directory and did ./sage.  The response
was as follows:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| SAGE Version 2.8.2, Release Date: 2007-08-22                       |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information.        |

The SAGE install tree may have moved.
Regenerating Python.pyo and .pyc files that hardcode the install PATH
(please
wait less than a minute)...
Please do not interrupt this.

At the prompt "sage:" I typed 2+2 and got the following response:

If you can provide any help with this installation problem, I would be
most grateful

Best regards,
John
