Got everything to compile, yet when I go to the area directory and its showing 'startup' in there. I go to do my './startup &' and its saying
-sh: ./startup: not found
I've not encountered this before. What can I do to fix this?

Mmmmm…. have you checked the permissions on the 'startup' file?

Yup, and the permissions are actually chmoded to 777 so it should be fine, its strange

I'm guessing the startup script is a c-shell script. You need to make sure you have csh or tcsh installed.

A few commands to check come to mind:
$ which csh
/usr/bin/csh

$ cat /etc/shells
/bin/sh
/bin/bash
/bin/ksh
/bin/pdksh
/bin/tcsh
/bin/zsh
/usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/bash
/usr/bin/ksh
/usr/bin/pdksh
/usr/bin/tcsh
/usr/bin/zsh

Also did you by any chance edit this startup script with Windows notepad, DOS edit, and upload it?

$ cat -v startup | head -1
#!/bin/csh^M

If you see an ^M there, then you've or someone else has done so.

If so, check out Linux utilities conv or dos2unix.

If you didn't install any packages, it sounds like it was the line ending problem and UltraEdit knew to do the "right thing".
