Start the Installation
You install OpenROAD using orinstall.sh.
To start the installation
1. Log in as the owner of the existing Ingres installation and set Ingres environment (II_SYSTEM, etc.)
2. Copy or_filename.tar.gz into a temporary disk location.
3. Change the current directory to $II_SYSTEM.
Note: Before running the command orinstall.sh, you must set a DISPLAY because it is required to configure Wine.
4. Untar the install script from the (gzip compressed) tar file into the installation area:
tar -zxf /full/path/to/OR_FILENAME.tar.gz orinstall.sh
./orinstall.sh -t ordev -f /full/path/to/OR_FILENAME.TAR.gz -l prompt
Note:  Do NOT extract the entire tarball, some GUI archiving tools will do this automatically, this is NOT required.
