Neither site has much detail on installing the packages. I have a real

the install as simple as setting the execute permissions and running the

on setting this up?
It should just be a matter of copying the pak files from the CD
(or a Windows install) to your baseq2 directory. For instance :
cp /media/cdrom/Install/Data/baseq2/*pak /usr/local/games/quake2/baseq2/
Make sure the pak files are then readable by your user.
My RPM sets up a menu entry under Games. Use that or run 'quake2' or
'sdlquake2' from /usr/local/games/quake2.
I was lucky to buy the "Quake 2 Colossus for Linux" box a few years ago,
which includes RPMs for the data files, so I never had to do that. But
that should do it.
I hope this helps.
