 + If ros-fuerte-arm-navigation is not installed, then install it:
 `sudo apt-get install ros-fuerte-arm-navigation`

+
+### Installation Steps ###
+
+1. Inside your ROS Workspace directory, create a directory called lightning.
 
 + Inside the lightning directory, run the following command:
 `svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/lightningros/code/trunk .`
 Do not forget to include the period at the end of the command.
 
 + As a sanity check, run the following command:
 `roscd lightning`
 This should make lightning directory the current working directory if it is not already the current working directory. If you get the error `roscd: No such package 'lightning'`, then check that your ROS Workspace directory is in the ROS_PACKAGE_PATH environment variable.
 
 + Make the lightning package:
 `rosmake lightning`
 
 + Lightning is now ready for use. See [Using Lightning] for how to start and use Lightning.
