BUILDING

+- Pre-requisite for 'mongo', the MongoDB interactive shell:
+
+ The shell requires the library ../v8/libv8. There is no v8 binary distro, so
+ we recommend you install and build V8 as follows:
+
+ $ cd ..
+ $ svn checkout http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ v8
+ $ cd v8
+ $ scons libv8.a
+
+- Then use scons to build.
+
+ If you want to build everything (mongod, mongo, tools, etc):
+
+ $ scons .
+
+ If you only want to build the database:
+
+ $ scons
