This is discussed below under Configuring Virtual Machines . It is not necessary to complete the installation to manually test the newly built system. If you put the links subdirectory in your search path, you can compile MPD programs by running mpd and mpdl with the -e option. This causes them to load libraries and other files from within the source directory instead of from the ultimate, installed locations. Installing the System After the system has been built and verified, it must be installed in its ultimate destination as configured above.
Type make install to copy the commands, man pages, and support files.
At this point, a complete MPD system has been built and installed. Without further reconfiguration, however, remote virtual machines may not work properly. This reconfiguration was deferred until now in order to have a working MPD system as a testbed. If you're building MPD on an Intel Paragon, you should also skip this section. When a program creates a virtual machine and specifies a host machine on which to place it, MPD uses a remote shell to run the program on the remote host.
