   Yes it is all the same the only difference is that the mbse directory is   
   located /home instead of /opt.   
      
   If the previously installed scripts as well as any new ones still have the    
   code   
   that sets up $MBSE_ROOT and exports it all will be fine.   
      
   Some manual changes are needed however if updating an existing system   
   previously under /opt but nothing complicated.   
      
   I will have a go and producing a script that deals with that using a standard   
   distro environment.   
      
   Stopping mbse.   
      
   Clearly the new system has to be created into a temp directory and the system   
   compiled as per normal, then the existing /etc/passwd has to be changed for   
   mbse, bbs and any bbs users to point to /home instead of /opt.   
      
      
   ditto changes to /etc/xinetd.d/mbsebbs to replace '/opt' to '/home'.   
      
   and some others.   
      
   but after that it is just a :   
   cd /home   
   sudo mv mbse build-mbse   
   sudo mv /opt/mbse /home   
      
   and restart mbse.   
      
   Above is by memory but I am creating notes of the changes and once that is   
   complete I can start looking at a script to try and do most of the donkey    
   work.
