BSD/OS 3.1 dates back to the end of 1997. That's getting pretty darn old. It nearly qualifies for museum-piece status, in which case we don't worry much about it, unless you're willing to do nearly all of the work. For starters, you need to try to find a POSIX shell, as the diagnostic suggests. Try bash, ash, ksh. i.e., try running these commands until you find one that works: bash configure ash configure ksh configure If none of those work, try getting an older version of bash and see if you can build *it*. If so, use that bash binary to run coreutils' configure script. You'll probably want to install it as /bin/sh, too. Good luck. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
