Joe,
I am trying to install grass5.0beta2 on my MkLinux system which did have
grass5.0beta running on it succsesfully.
My situation is similar - except that this version/revision is the first
to make it onto my linux 2.0.36 system.
I placed grass5.0beta2.tar.gz in /usr/local and did a gzip -d. I then did
tar -xvf on the resulting grass5.0beta.tar. After untarring I cd'd into
the new directory grass5.0beta and ran ./configure both as a user, and then
as root (after I had the problem below) everything seemed to go well with
the last few lines of the data parsed to the screen from configure
reading...<SNIP>
checking for xdr_int in -lsun... (cached) no
checking for xdr_int in -lnsl... (cached) yes
creating ./config.status
creating Makefile
creating src/CMD/head/head
creating src/scripts/shells/create_fifos.sh
creating src/include/config.h
src/include/config.h is unchangedI then ran "make install" and received this error?...
install -d -m 755 /usr/local/grass-5.0b /home/grass/.bashrc
UNIX_BIN=/usr/local/bin SRC=`pwd` /bin/sh src/CMD/generic/CREATE_GMAKE.sh
/bin/sh: /home/grass/.bashrc: Permission denied
make: *** [pre-install] Error 126Any ideas?

I had a similar error. This came up when I tried to put grass5b2 on one
disk and install it on another. Moving it all to the same hard drive
solved the problem, though I would hope that the code could eventually be
tricked into doing this. You might look at file ownerships, since you
got a permission denied. Another option is to install the Bourne shell
as /bin/sh, which gets around the /home/grass/.bashrc problem, but only
trivially.
Hope this helps.
Adios,
Chris
