<h2 id="requirements">Requirements</h2>
<p>
To run this database, the following software stack is known to work.
Other software most likely also works, but is not tested as much.
</p>
<h3>Database Engine</h3>
<ul><li>Windows XP or Vista, Mac OS X, or Linux
</li><li>Sun JDK 1.5 or newer (using Retroweaver to convert to JDK 1.4 should work, but is not regularly tested)
</li><li>Recommended Windows file system: NTFS (FAT32 only supports files up to 4 GB)
</li></ul>
<h3>H2 Console</h3>
<ul><li>Mozilla Firefox
</li></ul>
<h2 id="supported_platforms">Supported Platforms</h2>
<p>
As this database is written in Java, it can run on many different platforms.
It is tested with Java 1.5 and 1.6 but can also be compiled to native code using GCJ.
The source code does not use features of Java 1.6. Currently, the database is
developed and tested on Windows XP and Mac OS X using the Sun JDK 1.6, but it also
works in many other operating systems and using other Java runtime environments.
All major operating systems (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Mac OS, Ubuntu,...) are supported.
</p>
<h2 id="installing">Installing the Software</h2>
<p>
To install the software, run the installer or unzip it to a directory of your choice.
</p>
<h2 id="directory_structure">Directory Structure</h2>
