[sleuthkit-users] Installation Problems (and hello!)

[Stuart B. <e_t...@ya...>]

Hi

I am new to both Sleuthkit and this list so would like to say hello to 
all. I am a serving law enforcement officer working in a busy UK HTCU. I 
have been in post for just over three years, but have been involved with 
computers for over fifteen years. I am a slightly "better than noob" 
linux user and find myself using it more and more in my current role.

Anyway, thats me. Unfortunately I have a problem that I cannot resolve 
so find myself asking for help on my first visit. I hope this is the 
right place for this sort of question.

Basically, I cannot seem to get "sleuthkit" installed on my system.

I am running Zenwalk (slackware based) on a 2.6.14.4 kernel. I 
downloaded the sleuthkit tarball to my home "dir", "untarred" it, read 
the INSTALL.txt and then typed "make". Lots of text went whizzing by and 
the prompt returned with no obvious errors. I gave gcc installed and all 
that.

I then tried "man sleuthkit" and got a "not found". I tried a couple of 
commands on a test dd image. Each time command not found. I tried 
"whereis sleuthkit" and again nothing found.

I tried installing again, this time from the "/usr" folder and the same 
thing happened.

Could anyone please tell me where I am going wrong. I suspect it is 
something simple but I just can't see it.

Many thanks

Stu
