There was only one instance, STRIP_ELF, which I turned off, =0. One thing that would help is that it keeps asking where the source dir is (usr/src/OpenLinux). How can I tell it where it is so as I do not have to keep typing it in. Tried # Storage directory for newly created packages # By default they will be stored at the default # location fot the package type PAK_DIR="/usr/src/OpenLinux" but still asks. -- Keith Antoine (GANDALF) aka 'skippy' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061 Australia PH:61733002161 Retired Geriatric, Sometime Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
