- I've spent a day and a half fiddling with parameters and I just cant get
- this to install and run properly.
-
- I'm trying to install emacs-18.59 on a perfectly generic 486 machine
- running SCO UNIX System V/386 Release 3.2 Version 2.0. I am using the
- compiler and libraries that come with the SCO 3.2.2 developer's set.
-
- I uncompress and un-tar the files from uunet ok except for some non-sense
- errors about tar being unable to create directories. (It creates every
- directory that it claims to be unable to create, and the resulting directory
- tree seems to match what's described in the install notes.)
-
- I set the system file to s-sco3-2-2.h and the machine file to m-intel386.h
- in the config.h file, as instructed in the MACHINES file. I am using the
- default /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/emacs, and /usr/local/man, so I leave
- all the pathnames unchanged.
-
- >From the root account and the build directory tree (emacs-18.59) I invoke make
- as follows:
-
- make Makefile install.sysv 2>&1 | tee /u/emacs/make.log
-
- A transcript of the output follows this message.
-
- In looking at the transcript there are a bunch of compiler warnings C4011 and
- C4067. The 4011 identifyer name truncated warning is mentioned in the docs
- and is to be ignored. the 4067 results from a comment following rhe #endif
- directive. This also looks like it can be ignored.
-
- stripping out the 4011's and 4067's there doesn't seem to be any
- problem with the installation. everything ends up where the docs say it should
- but when I envoke emacs on a text file i see the first page of the text file
- displayed above a status line and an error which reads:
-
- -----Emacs: README (Fundamental)----Top--------------------
- select error: Invalid argument
-
- the terminal then emits a never ending string of bells (ctl-G's i suppose)
- and accepts no input. It even lockcs PC-Term so I can't break out of it.
- the emacs process must be killed from another terminal or the line must
- be disconnected.
-
- Has anyone encountered this behaviour before? Any Ideas?
-
- I'm really sick of using vi on this thing and I'd like to get emacs up, but
- at this point i'm stumped.
