mediawiki install, how to?

Folks,

I did set it up so I can install mediawiki via yum, and everything worked
out, the only thing I am not quite clear about is how to proceed once 'yum
install mediawiki' completed. There seems to be a disconnect from there
that leaves off to where the installation guides for mediawiki pick up.

Right now mediawiki is located at /usr/share/mediawiki, is that the
directory I am supposed to copy over to my /var/www/mediawiki and start the
install from there?

Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.

Cheers,
Peter

Have you read the instructions under README.RPM?
(BTW which distribution is this about and what version of mediawiki did
you install?)

Axel, thanks for your quick reply, and your ATrpms effort. ;)
The distro is Centos 5.3 x64. Indeed the README.RPM resolved the issue. I
changed my DocumentRoot to /var/www/wiki and it works fine. The server's
purpose is to run the wiki, so specifying the /wiki directory as doc root is
desired.

I actually ran into a different issue, though I will try mwusers.com for
that. I have PHP eAccelerator installed, it shows up fine when doing a
phpinfo(); but MW doesn't see it.

Cheers,
Peter
