I am installing a software into FreeBsd 2.2.5 Server. In the instruction it said to do this : for i in 'cat /mnt/cdrom/courses/list.txt' do mkdir $i cd $i tar xvf /mnt/cdrom/courses/$i.tar cd .. done It was instructed to do this from directory where I want it to be installed. It does not what shell to user. I do it and it creates dir by the name cat xvf cd and it stops. And gives me such as /cdrom/courses/cat not found. I tried in 'sh' shell 'bash' shell. Could somebody help me please. Jahanur To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
