-This is the current list of steps to support LON-CAPA installation.  These
-steps have been tested.</p>
-<ol>
-<li>Get LON-CAPA on a CD by
-<ul>
-<li>Requesting a LON-CAPA installation CD (c/o Helen Keefe, 
-helen@lon-capa.org).</li>
-<li>Or, downloading a LON-CAPA installation
-<a href="http://install.lon-capa.org/3.1/currentcdimage">CD image</A> and
-burning a CD.</li>
-<li>(Depending on whether your computer has a bootable CD-ROM, you may
-need to also make a boot floppy.  Download this floppy disk image file: 
-<a href=
-"http://install.lon-capa.org/3.1/currentcdsource/images/boot-20000407.img">
-boot-20000407.img</a>.  (Download the image file; insert a blank floppy disk;
-and type this command: <tt>dd if=boot-20000407.img of=/dev/fd0</tt>).</li>
-</ul></li>
-<li>Install with CD-ROM
-<ul>
-<li>Follow the <A HREF="instructions_with_cd.html">
-CD-ROM installation instructions</a></li>
-</ul></li>
-<li>After installation, restart the computer.  Login as root.  Enter this
-command (you only need to do this after your first reboot):
-<ol>
-<li><tt>sh /usr/sbin/loncapa_configure</tt></li>
-</ol></li>
-</ol>
-<hr />
-<p>
-You can also try to install LON-CAPA on an existing installation of
-RedHat 6.2.  Please see <a
-href='how_to_install_loncapa_on_a_preinstalled_system.txt'>
-how_to_install_loncapa_on_a_preinstalled_system.txt</a>.
+The <strong>TEST</strong> command will check the installation software,
+the perl libraries on your system, the MySQL database, and
+will also automatically test the real-time operation of the 
+LON-CAPA Apache web server.
