This page is targeted at those who wish to develop and build the freesurfer source code on their Linux platform. These instructions have been tested for CentOS6 x86_64.
<<TableOfContents(3)>>
=== Get the Source Code ===
''If you already have a working local copy of the CVS repository then you can skip this step.''
{{{
# Local CVS access:
export CVSROOT=/space/repo/1/dev
cvs checkout -P dev

# Or for remote access:
export CVSROOT=:ext:USER@door.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu:/space/repo/1/dev
cvs checkout -P dev
}}}
Or, you can get readonly CVS access to the source code by following the directions [[https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/ReadOnlyCVS|on this page]]:

/* === Get the build tools (Ubuntu plantforms only) === If you are on an Ubuntu machine you will have to install the following packages:{{{sudo apt-get install autoconf libtool gfortran cvs}}} */


=== Download and Install the Libraries ===

The following packages were required before building on a CentosOS 6.6 (minimal desktop).

{{{
yum install libtool-ltdl
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
yum install mesa-libGL-devel mesa-libGLU-devel
yum install freetype-devel.x86_64
yum install libuuid-devel.x86_64 uuid-c++-devel.x86_64
yum install libXmu-devel.x86_64 libXi-devel.x86_64 libXaw-devel.x86_64
yum install liblapack-devel.x86_64
}}}



Use the following commands to download and install the prepackaged bundle of open-source libraries required for building Freesurfer:

/* '''''On 64bit systems''''' */
{{{
wget ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/fs_supportlibs/prebuilt/centos6_x86_64/centos6-x86_64-packages.tar.gz
mkdir -p /usr/pubsw/packages
tar -C /usr/pubsw/packages -xzvf centos6-x86_64-packages.tar.gz
}}}

/* '''''On 32bit systems'''''{{{wget ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/fs_supportlibs/prebuilt/centos6_x86_64/centos6-x86_64-packages.tar.gz mkdir -p /usr/pubsw/packages tar -C /usr/pubsw/packages -xzvf centos6-x86_64-packages.tar.gz }}} */

=== Setup, Configure, Make ===
Determine the location you want Freesurfer to be installed. For example, in case case we will assume the user wants freesurfer to be installed in {{{/home/USER/freesurfer}}}. Type the following commands in the top-level Freesurfer directory (the directory that contains configure.in and all the mri_* and mris_* directories.)
{{{
./setup_configure
./configure \
      --prefix=/home/USER/freesurfer
make -j4
make install
}}}
Done!
