When I look at them with the more command on a linux machine, I see 2 lines in bval and 6 lines in bvec. Most likely this is a problem with the text files being created with a windows program like excel and not having unix-compatible end-of-line characters. It's been discussed a few times in the archives. You'll have to make sure you have text files that can be read properly on unix.
