Dear Experts, i´ve tried to install teTex on a Linux-Webserver, where i have 100 MB available for teTex.
I want´t to do this to run a mediawiki, where i want to typeset math formulas online. Such things work fine at www.wikipedia.org, I don´t have root access, but a ssh connection. It´s even possible for me to compile the sources online. First i tried to follow the instructions in http://www.tug.org/tetex/tetex-src/QuickInstall Everything worked fine, but i don´t have enough disk space. So i tried to find something different on the web to get a minimal installation of TeX. I found some instructions here: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/TeTeX-HOWTO-9.html which seemed to be ideal for me. But searching the ftp-Server i just found the same files like in ftp://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/systems/unix/teTeX/current/distrib/ so i think this way is now obsolet. I couldn´t find the files install.sh which i could have altered to suit my needs. Is there any way to set up a minimal installation, just to run that mediawiki and typeset the formulas? I´m sure that many webservers run teTeX to allow mediawiki to typeset formulas. Instructions are here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_User's_Guide:_Editing_mathematical_form ulae I searched a couple of days, but didn´t find something suitable. I would appreciate every hint. thanks in advance, sincerly Chris
