download the tarball
expand it in, lets say /src
change directory to /src/R-xxx
./configure --prefix=/opt/R-xxx
make
make install
change directory to /opt/R-xxx/bin
start the progr. with ./R

this is basically the standard install/compile procedure under linux.
You will probably have to enrich your linux installation with all tools &
libraries necessary: ex. gcc, f2c, flex, yacc, ... whatever.
It is possible to maintain several versions of R on the same computer.
Although I experience problems while saving the workspace image.

Regards,

Rik
