Hi Karel,

first of all, which live CD? there are several. Pse specifics....

To install a server on UBUNTU, do the following:
* Connect to the internet
* Install fldigi
* Download pskmail_server-1.0.32.tar.gz from 
http://hermes.esrac.ele.tue.nl/pskmail
* In a terminal do tar zxvf pskmail_server.tar.gz
* cd pskmail_server-1.0.32
* sudo ./INSTALL
* answer yes to all questions
* start fldigi
* start pskmail_server in a terminal

The server files are in /usr/local/share/pskmail_server

To install a client on linux or windows, 

* connect to internet
* install
* download the installer of jPSKmail-0.8.5 for linux or windows
* in linux, make installer executable
* run installer
* start fldigi
* start jPSKmail

==============================================
Hello all,
Rein or Per, why is there no fldigi on the puppy live CD?
I started it and is a nice puppy CD but no PSKmail, no FLDIGI.

Returning to my earlier mail., questions. I need a step tp step instruction on 
how to install PSKmail client en the PSK mail server on UBUNTU 10.1
See below. I know how to start the terminal but the setup line respond that it 
cant find the files or dirs.
I have the installable save on my disk but cant with the terminal cannot find 
them. Were should I put the installables to be installes in what dir or 
whatever.

Thanks
Karel

Hello I am trying to setup pskmail server in Ubuntu, but I dont know where to 
put the installable and how to execute the installation.
I dont know anything of Linux.  Manuals step by step I need.
When I try to start installation with a terminal session. I says It cant find 
the files.
The files are now in the download dir.
Please some help.

Another questions. I have a live CD that installes the server but when a try to 
run a live cd client it installes the server not the client.
What to do?

On a CD here on my desk...
 It all started when we figured it would be nice to have the modem part
 included in the pskmail client. Franz-Josef did a very nice job of
 porting the necessary classes to java, he also built a simple user
 interface for testing. I have attached an image of that, nothing much to
 see there but it just shows that it does run on java and it works.

 At a later stage we decided not to include it anyway as we would then
 not benefit from all the hard work done by the fldigi group. But, it
 would make a very nice addition to an android phone. With this mornings
 announcement from Nokia I will immediately ditch my phone and get an
 android device so I would like to see this there as well.
