Hello, Installation of bash-2.04-5mdk fails because it is looking for sash in /bin. However sash-3.4-3mdk puts it into /sbin Created a symbolic link to /sbin/sash in /bin and installed bash-2.04-5mdk with --nodeps. Following the 80 #'s the following was output: Stand-alone shell (version 3.4) Usage: sash [-a] [-q] [-c command] [-p prompt] [script] execution of script failed Hope this helps, Owen
