Did you check out the Unix Build/Install HOWTO?

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc36/unix-install-howto.html

Also there are a few sets of step by step instructions for installing
PHP MapScript on various RedHat versions.  You could have a look at that
as well, if you only need 'mapserv' then just ignore the PHP part, the
