One nitpick there, that works if you run the script with: ./script-name but if you run it with bash (or any other shell) like so: bash script-name bash will ignore the shebang as a comment, so the -e is not interpreted. Using set works every time. #!/bin/bash set -e Andy -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
