never seen that. i don't see what the problem is by simple inspection. but i have confused the installer on occasion. if you can't get back on track by forcing the step by just typing it at the prompt, the easiest trick might be something like this at the installer prompt: !rc # cp /bin/test /tmp/builtintest # {echo '#!/bin/rc' echo '/tmp/builtintest $* || echo >[1=2] failed test args: $*}>/tmp/test # chmod a+x /tmp/test # bind /tmp/test /bin/test this will at the least tell us what the full arguments to test were. and maybe give you some ideas on what to do next. - erik
