Justin,
If you gunzipped and untarred the beta 10 files correctly, they should be in a directory called grass5.0beta10 directly under the directory where you ran the tar command.
I assume that you followed the directions, and, substituting the beta version number, did something like:
gunzip grass5.0beta10.tar.gz
tar -xvf grass5.0beta10.tar
This should have created a subdirectory called grass5.0beta10 . If you typed these commands correctly you should see a long list of files being extracted from the tar file - this takes a while.
Then, instead of the instruction listed in the README file:
cd grass5.0beta
just do
cd grass5.0beta10
Look at the INSTALL file in that directory for further information.

Hello GRASS list:
I am a new user hoping to learn the hydro simulation modeling capabilities of
GRASS as well as its spatial stat components. I am attempting to install GRASS
5.0 beta10 to a RedHat7.0 linux box. I have gunzipped and tared the files and am
ready to install, except I don't know where to run the ./configure and make
install commands. I cannot find the grass5.0beta directory as documented. Where
would this directory be? I assume in the same one as the other stuff. Anyways I
would appreciate your help.

Malcolm,
I re- tarred the grass tarball in the /opt/grass5sources directory. The
tar -xvf command did not uncompress a directory called grass5.0beta10 in
the /opt/grass5sources directory. It did make the following directories:
bin,
bwidget,dev,documents,driver,etc,fonts,include,lib,man,scripts,tcltkgrass,and
txt. There is a file called grass5 in the directory but it is only a
file of an unkown type. What am I doing wrong? Is there a problem with
the gzip file I downloaded?
Thanks,
Justin S.
