Only problem was that install script ending with "printp: Cannot exec" (or something similar). A "MathInstaller -dir /usr/local/mathematica -auto" solved the problem. You have to edit the mathpass file by hand however... And don''t forget to put the X fonts in your fontpath of your X-Server. BTW, it gives funny errors when executing. It always complains about a non-implemented syscall, but this does not affect execution....
