I am limited with write permissions to only my home area and the /scratchdisk. So I checked out the CVS tree in a directory in /scratchdisk and built emacs usingYour question about building emacs was already answered. One side note: the cvs tree is obsolete. The project now uses Bazaar. http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/#Obtaining
Thanks for pointing this out Herbert, my problem however is I don't have access to bazaar on my machine. Hence I chose the CVS tree. I see that the Savannah project page mentions using rsync or scp, but I don't know how I can do an anonymous checkout with either of them.
Thanks for any pointers.
