[GRASS5] grass5.0beta

[Justin Saarinen]

Hello GRASS list:

I am a new user hoping to learn the hydro simulation modeling capabilities of
GRASS as well as its spatial stat components. I am attempting to install GRASS
5.0 beta10 to a RedHat7.0 linux box. I have gunzipped and tared the files and am
ready to install, except I don't know where to run the ./configure and make
install commands. I cannot find the grass5.0beta directory as documented. Where
would this directory be? I assume in the same one as the other stuff. Anyways I
would appreciate your help.
