23.2.1. Unpacking the Mathematica distribution

The binaries are currently distributed by Wolfram on CDROM. The CDROM has about a dozen tar files, each of which is a binary distribution for one of the supported architectures. The one for Linux is named LINUX.TAR. You can, for example, unpack this into /usr/local/Mathematica:

% cd /usr/local
% mkdir Mathematica
% cd Mathematica
% tar -xvf /cdrom/LINUX.TAR
