Choosing the directory for scripts
Type the directory path in which the Mathematica scripts will be created, or press ENTER to select /usr/local/bin:
> /opt/local/bin
renaming the scripts
The scripts 'MathKernel', 'Mathematica', 'math', 'mathematica', 'mcc' already exist in the directory /opt/local/bin. The following actions can be performed on the existing file(s).
(1) Overwrite
(2) Rename
Type your selection, or press ENTER to select (1):
> 2
Giving an extension for the old scripts
Type a file name extension to be appended to the name of the existing file(s), or press ENTER to select (.old):
> .32bits
renaming all scripts to their intended names
sudo su -
pushd /opt/local/bin
for i in MathKernel Mathematica math mathematica ; do mv $i $i.64bits && mv $i.32bits $i ; done
Setting the license server
sudo su -
echo \!129.125.66.208 > /opt/Mathematica-Rr2008a-64bit/Configuration/Licensing/mathpass
Starting Mathematica
/opt/local/bin/Mathematica.64bits
