+				OR THE RIGHT WAY....
+DPKG/DEB INSTALLATION:
+
+To install from deb archives (*.deb), use:
+
+	> sudo dpkg --install <debarchive>
+
+That's it! But not really. Do make sure that you install petsc and metis first.
+When you first try to install issm, dpkg will tell you that you are missing
+dependencies. Just:
+
+	> sudo apt-get install -f
+
+to fix the dependencies and complete the install. When apt-get is done, you 
+should see something that says that ISSM is installed correctly on your 
+machine. That's it! For real this time.
+
+Uninstalling is simple too:
+
+	> sudo apt-get remove <issmPackageName>
+
+That'll do all the work for you. This won't delete any configuration or user
+defined environment stuff. Just swap "remove" out for "purge" and that'll
+delete everything. And apt-get might ask you to remove unneeded dependencies,
+so you should probably do that to keep your system clean.
+
+To create your own custom debian archive, see the README in issmpkg.

+
+APT-GET INSTALLATION: (this doesnot work yet)
+
+To install from apt-get:
+
+	> sudo add-apt-repository <issm_PPA_URL>
+	> sudo apt-get install <issmPackageName>
+
+Just say yes to everything apt asks you, and you're good.
