Can it be done? Has anyone done it? Are there instructions for doing it? Here are my problems. Any help would be appreciated. bash$> ../configure # my build area is a subdir .../config.guess: fork: Not owner Config.guess failed to determine the host type. You need to specify one. bash$> ../configure -host=i386-pc-cygwin32 COPY FOR DUP FAILED, handle in FFFFFFFF 6!! .../configure: /dev/null: Bad file number *** cannot find config.sub I don't know what the first problem is. For the second one, looks like configure is try to redirect output to /dev/null, which is obviously not there. Do I need to use mknod to create one? How? What do I need to do in Windows95 environment to get it to work? Thanks in advance. Also, why is a newgroup not used for discussions like this? My mail box is already cluttered in only one day! - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
