2 Quick Start

  To produce the final answer set you must have FTimes 3.7.0 installed
  and the subject image in the following location relative to the
  project root:

    evidence_locker/dfrws-2006-challenge.raw

  FTimes 3.7.0 is downloadable from SourceForge:

    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=41134

  Note: FTimes 3.7.0 will be released during the week of 2006-07-17.

  Compile and install ftimes using the following commands:

    % ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-xmagic --with-all-tools
    % make
    % make install

    You will need to have PCRE installed on your system too. We
    recommend version 6.6 or higher. If your version of PCRE is not
    installed in a standard location, you may use the '--with-pcre'
    configure option to specify an alternate location.

  Make a copy of the following files:

    first.crv
    final.crv
    final.map

  If you don't do this step, the next step will overwrite them.

    % cp first.crv first.crv.orig
    % cp final.crv final.crv.orig
    % cp final.map final.map.orig

  You can use these files to confirm that you are getting the same
  answers as we did.

  Start by putting a copy of the subject image into the evidence_locker:

    % mkdir evidence_locker
    % cp <your_path>/dfrws-2006-challenge.raw evidence_locker/

    Note: Do not use a symlink, here as that would cause some of the
    make targets to fail.

  To create the final answer set, run this command:

    % make carve-final

  To populate the work tree (requires gnuplot), run this command:

    % make plots stats carve

  To populate the database (requires MySQL), run this command:

    % make load-stats
