[BioC] problem with bioconductor install script

[John Zhang]

getBioC is an R script and is supposed to be run with R. After starting R, 
source("http://www.bioconductor.org/getBioC.R") will load the script into R and 
getBioC("all", "release") will get all the released packages from Bioconductor.
