I will do that, together with your input in the other email about how to deal with bash.

Yes, I already found issues, which is why it was taken out of the patches I submitted. I will go back and have another look at it.

That I have found already. I am currently working on it and struggling a bit. I am making small progress but then hit another issue. My current one is having built it and adjusted mpfire-ipfire to use the correct directory names (based on perl version) I now have a problem at the building cdrom stage which looks to be related to the rootfile. A lot of it seems to be missing including the /usr/bin/perl entries. I will investigate further but may need to come back with the error for advice and guidance.

Adolf.
