yes, client is a subdirectory and when you install the server it is put in a subdirectory called server.  How are you going to handle that when you install the server and client on the same machine?.   After all, it's just one level...

 Hi,

I wanted to build a client and put in a directory.  But all files are placed in a subdirectiry called client.  This is hardcoded in the confgure and Makefile scripts.
In the Makefile are 2 vaiabele defined: BBTOPDIR and BBHOME.  BBHOME = $BBTOPDIR/client.
Changing these variabele is not enough because the client subdirectory is also hardcoded in other places.  So in some places (for instance the clientlaunch.cfg) BBTOPDIR/client is used, this should be BBHOME.

I changed all files and removed the client directory dependency.  It's working now.  But maybe it's a better idea to change the configure and install scripts and use the variabele BBHOME and BBTOPDIR.
