[R] problem with installation on Linux (beginners)

[Alicia Amadoz]

Hello,

I'm new to the installation R on Linux and I've followed the
instructions on the R Installation and Administration Manual and on the
FAQs. I also have changed the path at the .bash_profile file but when I
try to type R at the shell prompt, it says:

Fatal error: R home directory is not defined

I've tried many things but all the time it says the same. Any help would
be appreciated.

Regards,
Alicia
