```
cmake ../Nominatim
make
+sudo make install
+```
+
+Nominatim installs itself into `/usr/local` per default. To choose a different
+installation directory add `-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<install root>` to the
+cmake command. Make sure that the `bin` directory is available in your path
+in that case, e.g.
+
+```
+export PATH=<install root>/bin:$PATH
```
Now continue with [importing the database](Import.md).
