The graph information is kept with each category in chunks
of the form <<CATEGORYNAME.dotfull>> and <<CATEGORYNAME.dotabb>>
At the end of the file there are chunks named <<dotfull>> and
<<dotabb>>. You can extract the dot files with the command
notangle -Rdotfull bookvol10.2.pamphlet >dotfull
notangle -Rdotabb bookvol10.2.pamphlet >dotabb
The notangle function lives in $AXIOM/bin/lib so you
need to add this to the path. So try:
export AXIOM=`pwd`/mnt/ubuntu
export PATH=$AXIOM/bin/lib:$AXIOM/bin:$PATH
