For debian, download the apache2, php and mysql packages - plus the interoperablilty modules. Download sugarcrm and follow the installation instructions.

i have everthing copied across to the /var/www/sugar directory,
then i do the whole http://ServerName/sugar
then the install should start, but....

all i get is a request to download some php file "x-httpd-php"
have you heard of anything like this.
