+=== Debian-based Linux distributions ===
+Scratchbox will be installed per default from Debian .deb packages, to default path /scratchbox.
 <code><pre>
 wget http://repository.maemo.org/stable/chinook/maemo-scratchbox-install_4.0.sh
 sudo chmod a+x ./maemo-scratchbox-install_4.0.sh
+sudo ./maemo-scratchbox-install_4.0.sh
+sudo /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_adduser <your_user_name> yes
+</pre>
+</code>
+=== Other Linux distributions ===
+On any other Linux distribution, the install will use .tar.gz files and you will have to specify the desired destination directory.
+<code><pre>
+wget http://repository.maemo.org/stable/chinook/maemo-scratchbox-install_4.0.sh
+sudo chmod a+x ./maemo-scratchbox-install_4.0.sh -s /scratchbox
 sudo ./maemo-scratchbox-install_4.0.sh
 sudo /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_adduser <your_user_name> yes
