 Where is the tex.fmt?

What happens if you run
  fmtutil --byfmt=tex

I downloaded   teTeX-src-1.0.tar.gz, teTeX-texmf-1.0.tar.gz and
teTeX-texmfsrc-1.0.tar.gz(texmf tarball isn't it?).

I  followed the INSTALL till 6). And I set up PATH, then run "texconfig
confall".
And next I run "texconfig", the configuration window appeaed  on 
the screen then  I closed  the window unless set anything.

I thought it was finished install the teTex. I run "tex". 

The window showed the error message 

"..
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1)
I can't find the format file `tex.fmt'!"

I searched /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c,
but I can't find "tex.fmt".

That's all.

Do you know something about this?

I can't find tex.fmt

Hi all.

I installed teTeX-1.0 source version.

I thought that it finished perfectly.
But when I run the tex command, I get the error message.
The message is as follows.

..
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1)
I can't find the format file `tex.fmt'!

I searched /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c,
but I can't find tex.fmt.

Then I  cheked the world.log(make log file), I found 
#cd /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c  
(rm -f plain.fmt; ln -s tex.fmt plain.fmt)

Where is the tex.fmt?

Please any advise for me.

Thanks.
