I am trying to install GAP on an iBook 900 MHz running Mac OS 10.4.11
with 640 MB of RAM.
I have a basic GAP install compiled. The problem is getting all the
packages configured (or otherwise installed).
The packages are installed in the directory
/usr/local/lib/gap4r4/pkg/. Inside this directory, there is a shell
script InstPackages.sh; I am attaching a copy of InstPackages.sh.
When I cd to /usr/local/lib/gap4r4/pkg/ and run ./InstPackages.sh, I
get the error message "tcsh: ./InstPackages.sh: Command not found." (I
am running tcsh as my default shell.)
Can someone help me trouble-shoot the package installation process?
[[Added in proof :-} I just noticed that script begins with the string
"#!/usr/bin/sh". This actually may be the problem (the shells on Mac OS
X are usually in "/bin"). Try changing that to "#!/bin/sh". If that
doesn't fix it, read on.]

Justin,
Thanks so much for the reply!
It appears the /usr/bin/sh vs. /bin/sh thing was it. (Obviously, I do
zero shell scriping :)) It's running now (and it appears it will be
running for some time).
If I have any more problems, I'll email again, but that was it for now.
Thanks again.
Sincerely,
