compiled. Refer to the README file in each package for system prerequisites.
You must have administrative privileges to install the software. It is not necessary to have
administrative privileges to build or use the software.
All command syntax is case sensitive.
1. Insert the Sealevel media into your PC.
2. If your desktop environment does not auto-mount the media, you will need to do so
manually using the mount command. You may need administrative privileges for the mount
command to succeed.

drive is /cdrom:
$ cd /cdrom/Software/SeaIO/Linux
