Mandrake Linux 8.2
Kernel version: 2.4.17-5mdk
Uptime: 2 days 7
In a make file that I have, I have the line...
include ..\..\examples\common.make
I then get the error makefile:18: ..\..\examples\common.make: No such
file or directory

appear that the original poster for this thread is a windows' user
making the switch to Linux. Hooray for him!
