ok... FWIW: i'm using the following script...

cd /opt
echo removing existing tree...
rm -rf maximus
echo installing base prerequisits...
tar zxf max-3.03-etc.tar.gz
echo killing old log and err files...
rm maxbuild?.log
rm maxbuild?.err
./getmax
./cfgmax
./compmax
cd /opt


getmax contains...

cd /opt
echo updating maximus from sourceforge cvs repository...
cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous{at}cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/maximus co
maximus >/opt/maxbuild1.log 2>&1
cd /opt


cfgmax contains...

cd /opt
cd maximus
echo configuring... hit enter...
./configure --prefix=/opt/max >/opt/maxbuild2.log 2>&1
cd /opt


compmax contains...

cd /opt
cd maximus
echo running make build...
make build > /opt/maxbuild3.log 2>&1
cd /opt


hopefully i didn't mistype any of that ;)
