Only a few code changes were needed to get this run on a linux system.
The main fix was to prevent the netmush binary from creating a zombie processes
each time it dumped.
It has been successfully compiled on a 386/20 (pl10) and 486/66(pl13) with
gcc 2.4.5 and libc4.4.1, so it should compile on just about anything.
I've already changed the minimal.db.Z to indb.Z in the game/data directory
as well as added 'nohup' to the restart file.
To install:
I'd take a look at options.h, making sure everything is configured right for
you, then do a:
make install
edit game/mush.conf to fit your needs and make sure the paths are correct in
game/restart.
To Start the MUSH:
go to the game directory and type 'restart'. A corrupt version of the 'minimal'
database was included with the original database and has been replaced with a
working on.
The mush should then start up. Telnet to the right port and have fun!
The God character is 'One' with the password 'one'. I recommend you change
this as soon as possible.

ps. I am not the support person for pennmush, I just ported it to linux.
If you have problems with linux+pennmush/pl8 specifically you may email me,
for other, non-linux specific problems you should address the author, Lydia
Leong (lwl@eniac.seas.upenn.edu).
