Hello! My name is Svetoslav Chukov. First of all, sorry about that disturbing... I use Fedora Core 5 and noticed some bugs while using it. Let me explain what is the problem... i tried several times to start some .run files but always had an error result. So, I opened one of these files and sew strange actions of fedora. For example i could not start the shell script below that has of the head of .run file. The problem is that in Fedora Core 5 i get different result for CRC check and MD5 sum, but everything was fine in OpenSUSE and some other distros. So, i would like to understand the reason of the actions of my FC5. Here is one of the command that can not be executed in FC5: "sum1=`tail $1 | cksum | sed -e 's/ /Z/' -e 's/ /Z/' | cut -dZ" This command was inside of .run file, but is not only this example. The entire .run script is executed in wrong way, the all commands. I tried 2 or 3 .run scripts and have the same result on all. Thanks for the reading. Best Regards, Svetoslav
Svetoslav, You need to set _POSIX2_VERSION=199209 before you try to use older .run installers. E.g.: $ su - <password> $ export _POSIX2_VERSION=199209 $ sh ./some-random-game-installer.sh Other then that, please post FC5-related messages in Fedora users list (fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx) and not in the Fedora-development list (fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx).
