I'm new to installing anything on Solaris 10 on a sparc. For most of my linux/mac's it came pre-installed.
And installing on Windows is a breeze.
Now I have to install both Python & Mysql and seems like building it from source is the only option..
Here are my questions :
1.) Is compiling from source the only option ?!
2.) If I have to compile from source, what are the steps ? I think I'm a bit nervous doing this since I haven't done it.
3.) If number 2 is the only option, at what stage will I require root access ?
