The default layout is described in section~\ref{sec:texmftrees},
-\p.\pageref{sec:texmftrees}. The default installation directory is
-\dirname{/usr/local/texlive/2014} on Unix and
-|%SystemDrive%\texlive\2014| on Windows. This arrangement enables
-having many parallel \TL\ installations, such as one for each release
-(typically by year, as here), and you can switch between them merely by
-altering your search path.
-
-That installation directory can be overridden by setting the so-called
-\dirname{TEXDIR} in the installer. The \GUI\ screen for this and other
-options is shown in figure~\ref{fig:gui-main}. The most common reasons
-to change it are either lacking enough disk space in that partition (the
-full \TL\ needs several gigabytes), or lacking write permission for the
-default location (you don't have to be root or administrator to install
-\TL, but you do need write access to the target directory).
-
-The installation directories can also be changed by setting a variety of
-environment variables before running the installer (most likely,
-\envname{TEXLIVE\_INSTALL\_PREFIX} or
-\envname{TEXLIVE\_INSTALL\_TEXDIR}); see the documentation from
-|install-tl --help| (available online at
-\url{http://tug.org/texlive/doc/install-tl.html}) for the full list and
-more details.
-
-A reasonable alternative destination is a directory under your home,
-especially if you will be the sole user. Use `|~|' to indicate this, as
-in `|~/texlive/2014|'.
