<para>Prepare Coreutils for compilation:</para>

<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/tools</userinput></screen>

<para>Compile the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen>

<para>To test the results, issue: 
<userinput>make RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes check</userinput>.  The
<parameter>RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes</parameter> parameter tells the
test suite to run several additional tests that are considered
relatively expensive (in terms of CPU power and memory usage) on some
platforms, but generally are not a problem on Linux.</para>

<para>Install the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>
