Right.  I recommend avoiding current Debian packages.  For instance they
install a completely insecure cluster
<http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/howto/sge-security.html>, and don't ship the
means to secure it, or re-install generally (inst_sge etc. are missing).

[This probably doesn't help a newbie, but:

The development SGE contains Debian support for packages installing into
/opt/sge, designed for a shared installation; see recent snapshots.
There's also a proposed replacement for the actual Debian packaging
("gridengine.debian"), but it assumes some changes that mean you can't
use it directly with the SGE 8.1.2 release, if I recall correctly.]

It is straightforward to build the 8.1.2 release on Debian; see
<https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/wiki/WikiStart#Building>.  I'd recommend
installing into /opt/sge and sharing that between all the cluster nodes.
Run the inst_sge script in that directory to set up the distribution.

See http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/ for pointers to some tutorial information.
