Ouch! I got bit by something left over from yesterdays failed attempt. Fixing that, everything is working. In Summary: How I installed Context in /usr/local on Redhat EL WS v4 using BASH: Verify that the native RedHat version of tetex is not installed on your system; it is not compatible with Contex: rpm -q tetex rpm -q tetex-afm rpm -q tetex-doc rpm -q tetex-dvilj rpm -q tetex-dvips rpm -q tetex-fonts rpm -q tetex-latex rpm -q tetex-xdvi If any of these packages are installed use rpm -e package-name to erase them. download http://www.pragma-ade.nl/context/install/justtex.zip download http://www.pragma-ade.nl/context/install/linuxtex.zip move both files to /usr/local cd /usr/local unzip justtex.zip unzip linuxtex.zip cd tex chmod +x setuptex (may not be necessary) ./setuptex /usr/local/tex (may want to add to .bash_profile or save the script as /etc/profile.d/setuptex.sh and hard coding the value of TEXROOT in the script.) mkdir $VARTEXMF cd texmf download http://www.pragma-ade.nl/context/current/cont-tmf.zip mv cont-tmp.zip to the current directory ($TEXROOT/texmf) unzip -o cont-tmf.zip cd $TEXMFOS/bin chmod +x * chmod -x xpdfsuite.zip cd $TEXROOT texexec --make en de nl texexec --make metafun George, taco, thank you for the help.
