Here are the steps for installing versions of BNR2 for Linux prior to Beta 0.11.0:

Check the BNR Linux system requirements.
BNR basically has the same requirements as Kylix (which
is what BNR for Linux has been built with) besides the CD-ROM, so check the 
Borland Kylix system requirements.

Download the latest Linux version of BNR.
Most likely you will also need the Qt
runtime libraries libqt.so.2.gz and libqtintf.so.gz.
If you already have version 2.2.4 of these libraries (as libqt.so.2.2.4 and libqtintf.so.2.2.4)
you can use these by creating symbolic links libqt.so.2 and libqtintf.so to point to
the existing libraries, respectively.

Install BNR into a suitable directory.
The recommended installation method is to login as root and to create a directory /usr/local/bin/BNR,
run "tar xzvf bnr144.tgz" (for BNR1) or "gunzip BNR2.gz" (for BNR2) and gunzip both the Qt library files there.
Then you can create a script named bnr (or bnr2) into /usr/local/bin which contains
the following (for BNR1):
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin/BNR/
/usr/local/bin/BNR/BNR

(or for BNR2):
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin/BNR/
/usr/local/bin/BNR/BNR2

This makes it possible for every user to run BNR on your machine (provided the
file access rights are suitable, for example "chmod 755 BNR") simply by typing "bnr" or "bnr2" on
the command prompt.

Create the BNR cache directory. BNR tries to create this as it starts for the first
time, but its a good idea to do this beforehand. The directory is $HOME/BNR (for BNR1) or
$HOME/BNR2 (for BNR2). That is, each user will have their own configuration and cache files,
as the files are stored in the subdirectory of the user's home directory.
