## 2. Installing the Binaries

The binary distribution is composed of a number of tar archives which are the executables, servers, fonts, libraries, include files, man pages, config files, and the server link kit. The full distribution takes over 95MB of disk space.

At minimum you need to unpack the 'required' `X332*.tgz` archives plus at least one server that matches your vga card. If you will be using the new `XF86Setup` utility you will also need the VGA16 server. You'll need about 40Mb for the minimum required run-time binaries only.

  If this is your first time, then you can safely install all of the packages. As a minimal install, you'll need doc, bin, fonts lib, config, and one X server. If you already have a version of XFree86 installed, MAKE A BACKUP OF `/usr/X11R6` BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE. The standard installation procedure will overwrite your existing version of XFree86. Also, be sure to read the Release Notes Release Notes before installing.

  If you plan to install XF86Setup you'll have to install `X332prog` as well since XF86Setup checks for the existence of a certain file name pattern which is satisfied only if you install the library files from `X332prog`. This restriction will be fixed in future XFree86 releases for LynxOS.

  It may be necessary to increase the process stack limit in order to run XFree86 on your system. Edit `/etc/startab` and reboot your system to make the changes active before you begin the installation.

  Also, be sure to include `/usr/X11R6/bin` in your PATH environment variable.
