Looks like it's correct syntax, and that it's doing the right thing and attempting to install under /usr/local -- but that the user account you're using lacks permission to write there, possibly because /usr/local is mounted as read-only (hence the "read-only file system" message). -- James ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
