---++ Step 1: Pre-install 

 * Check Step 1 from http://pr.willowgarage.com/wiki/ROS/Installation

---++ Step 2: Install

The following commands will download the latest version of ROS, Personal Robots repository (ros-pkg) and UBC SRVC repository (ubc-srvc-pkg) in ~/ros and build the powerbot_player package with all its dependencies.

<verbatim>
wget http://ros.sf.net/rosconfig -O ~/rosconfig
wget http://people.cs.ubc.ca/~mariusm/srvc/rosconfig.patch -O rosconfig.patch
cat ~/rosconfig.patch | patch -p0 ~/rosconfig
chmod 755 ~/rosconfig
scp <user>@okanagan.cs.ubc.ca:/lci/project/raid1/srvc/srvc.rosconfig ~/srvc.rosconfig
~/rosconfig bootstrap -s ~/srvc.rosconfig ~/ros
</verbatim>

If you do the installation on a computer that is not inside the UBC CS network (for example one of the laptops), you will need to change the ~/srvc.rosconfig file and add you own UBC username to the SVN URL.

---++ Step 3: Setup your environment

Use the following commands to update your environment.

<verbatim>
~/rosconfig setup ~/ros > ~/.bashrc.ros
echo "source ~/.bashrc.ros" >> ~/.bashrc
</verbatim>
