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 and Ubuntu 12.04 i386 platforms.
<<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
}}}


=== Get the Libraries ===
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 {{{/Users/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=/Users/USER/freesurfer \
make -j4
make install
}}}
Done!
