Uhm.. I am not sure what you mean? Before you hit make install nothing should be put in your system dirs. ./configure should just create a bunch of makefiles and config.h and such. > 2. Running "make world" ended with the following error messages: <snipp> > mv t-tex.pro tex.pro > ./squeeze <texps.lpro >t-texps.pro > mv t-texps.pro texps.pro > /bin/sh ./texc.script ./tex.lpro texc.lpro > ./texc.script: line 7: ed: command not found There you go. 'ed' is missing on your system. This is a somewhat basic editor, a good description for installation is here: http://mirror.vtx.ch/lfs/blfs/view/svn/postlfs/ed.html But Mandrake should also offer it via it's package management. I ran into that problem once too and installing ed did the trick. I don't know though, if there is something else wrong, but the missing 'ed' for sure is a problem :-) Cheers, Steffen -- I suppose the secret to happiness is learning to appreciate the moment. -- Calvin
