<P>
<P>You will need a working Debian Woody installation, including apt, and make sure 
the following packages are installed and working correctly.
<P>
<H2><A NAME="ss3.1">3.1 Standard packages</A>
</H2>

<P>
<UL>
<LI>tomcat4</LI>
<LI>mysql-server</LI>
<LI>imagemagick</LI>
</UL>
<P>
<P>If these packages are not installed, you can do so by typing
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
<PRE>
  apt-get install packagename 
</PRE>
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>

where packagename is one of the above.
<P>
<P>Note: naturally you will need al dependencies too, but apt will take care of that
automatically.
<P>
<H2><A NAME="java"></A> <A NAME="ss3.2">3.2 Non standard package(s)</A>
</H2>

<P>While writing this document, Woody only contains java 1.1, but for MMBase
version 1.2 or higher is needed. I installed the packages from Blackdown. 
A list of Blackdown mirrors is at 
<A HREF="http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html">http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html</A>.
<P>
<P>I added the following to my /etc/apt/sources.list , but the path might be different for different mirrors:
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
<PRE>
  deb ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/java/jdk/debian woody non-free 
</PRE>
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>
<P>After that you can just type
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
<PRE>
  apt-get install j2sdk1.3  
</PRE>
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>
<P>Note: Although it must be possible to have more JRE's installed next to eachother, I wouldn't recommend
it if it's not absolutely neccesary.
