texmfstart?
And then I would like to thank the authors of this page for saving my life with these simple and streightforward instructions on installing this, well, complicated software!

== last stage: making the formats global ==
 
the last 2 steps are given as:
 
<code>
# cp -a /root/.texmf-var/web2c/* /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-var/web2c
# texhash
</code>
 
but <tt>/root/.texmf-var/web2c/*</tt> includes all the other formats as well
generated when pdftex/metapost was updated...
 
and the context formats are in <tt>/root/.texmf-var/web2c/pdfetex/*</tt>, aren't they?
 
so, for me it is not clear if it's enough what to move. shouldn't it be:
 
<code>
# mv /root/.texmf-var/web2c/pdfetex /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-var/web2c
# texhash
</code>

== beta ==
 
There is a pdftex beta for 1.40 at sarovar. I have not tried yet, but I assume it is installed just like 1.30. Could a knowledgeable soul check this and edit the page?

== texmfstart? ==
 
The page does not mention texmfstart yet. What is the proper way(TM) of installing it in teTeX?
