Hello,
I have been trying to install TeXLive2008 over the internet on a
Solaris10/AMD64 box (SunOS mikefire1 5.10 Generic_137112-07 i86pc i386 i86pc)
but the "./install-tl" script breaks after it downloads the packages, with the
message:
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf not found: No such file or directory
Note that I've tried several times to issue the command every time checking
all the options and using 'I'. The target platform is correctly identified.
Any help would greatly appreaciated ....
