Mr. Egge, I just noticed my machine at work which is configured exactly as mine at home has the sys link in the root directory, I believ I removed it at home when I first installed because I thought it was JUST a convience, my system has made world for a really long time after installing then just stopped functioning (make world) so the dependence on the link must of be introduced recently. I took out the link originally because I prefer to have the root directory as uncluttered as possible. Jordan, maybye this dependence should be noted somewhere, hunh? --- Thank You Very Much --- On Thu, 4 Sep 1997, Tor Egge wrote: > > I can only recommend ritual seppuku at this point.
