IF YOU DON'T then there is one more step we need to take. 17. goto the sub folder that contained the "readme" and "makefile" and select the "makefile". this should open a new editor. 18. in the very beginning are a couple of line and I believe the third line contains a reference to "versions". it is currently set to "versions = n", change the "n" to a "y" and save the file and CLOSE it. rerun step 15 above. this should fix the problem. good luck and drop me a line if I left any thing out. -- Joseph S.
