.. note::

   The utilities described in this document are designed and tested
   on a linux system. It is very likely to work on other
   systems, but it is easy to require some adjustments.

Installing gvSIG is a hybrid mechanism between a native installer,
dependent on the platform we are running, and a
java installer. The native installer, will install the gvSIG framework, 
preparing everything necessary in order to start a minimalist installation. 
The second, the java installer, is responsible for presenting
the user the different packages available for installation, and
installed.

The whole system is based on plugins installation packages, bundles and how they are installed.

We find:

- The native installer.

- Install Packages plugins, a plugin for each package,
  * files *. gvspkg

- Set of packages, which contain several installation packages
  plugins, *gvspks* files.

- References to package plugins files that contain *gvspki*
  Basic data of the package along with the URL from where to download
  this.
    
A distribution of gvSIG is formed by the native installer, and
a package set, *gvspks*, which added to the minimal installation
a set of features we want to be in distribution.

They are available to those who need it, the mechanisms for creating
gvSIG distributions with a custom packages sets,
so that packages can be included as considered appropriate, thus creating distributions
gvSIG specific or customized for different sectors.
