Things seem to be working better, bash reads the history and all. But (you knew that was coming :) ) bash seems to fail in a configure script for termcap 1.3 (2.0.8 was giving me trouble). Here is the line with the problem (very last line of the configure script): test "$no_create" = yes || ${CONFIG_SHELL-/bin/sh} $CONFIG_STATUS || exit 1 $no_create = create - ${CONFIG_SHEL-/bin/sh} = /bin/sh - $CONFIG_STATUS = ./config.status The error it gives is: ../config.status: fork: Not owner ../config.status: fork: Not owner I was able to do it from the command line instead, but was wondering if there's an easy fix. This worked perfect before when I didn't have the filesystem mounted with -b. On another note, gcc gives an error in string.h. Line 55, syntax error before '('. It's the line that declares bcopy(), commenting it out fixes it tho. I assume there's another definition of it somewhere in the others... - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
