Installing as non-root

Hello all,

Just wondering if I can a pointer to some existing
documentation (I assume
some are out there) on how to install plone as a non-root
user?

Thanks,

John

The 3.0 Unified Installer offers this as an option. See 
http:/
/plone.org/documentation/tutorial/installing-plone-3-with-th
e-unified-installer/root-or-user-install 
for a discussion of the merits and demerits of non-root
installation.

If you're installing 2.5, you could take a look at the 3.0
Unified 
Installer scripts for clues on adapting the procedure.
You'll find it 
much easier if your system already has the libjpeg and libz
libraries.

Well, installers aside, jut build Zope with a --prefix (on
the config 
step) to a directory in your homedir, and then put the Plone
products 
inside it.

I do that all the time.
