Those instructions was a little bit confusing,

if i may ask, what's confusing about the article? maybe i can straighten something out. also, that's not a real step by step howto .. :P

You were not supposed to read that statement ;-)

"make instance will emulate the zope2.x way of working, i.e no INSTANCE_HOME"

Does that mean I should run it? A newbie doesn't know if it's good or bad to emulate zope2.x. I didn't do "make instance" and everything seems fine.

make instance will install in the zope source tree. make install will install in another directory. that's best, IMO. easy upgrade later.

Ah, maybe the reason for the confusion is a mistake in the text. The first yellow square, should it say makezeoinstance instead of mkzopeinstance? Would make sense :)

thanks for the heads up. musta been real tired (excuses, excuses :))

What directory structure makes sense? I hade ZEO and Zope going into the same instance. That results in less directories. Should I put the instance directly in /path/to/zope? I would then get only one bin/ and one etc

there's many ways of running zope. i prefer using INSTANCE_HOME, for easier upgrades, test, etc...
