I googled the problem, it looks like the /bin/sh of
Solaris is not bash, but the scripts of GARNOME
assumes it is. I found no answer to this problem in
Google.

Solaris 8, eh??? Hmmm... It's been a while. I know that SUN offers a
free suite of Open Source GNU tools:

I am guessing that there are updates for some of these packages. Search
the web for sites that host SUN freeware.
No. The problem is that Garnome assumes that /bin/sh is a POSIX shell (or
perhaps bash - I haven't tested with ksh/zsh/etc.). On Solaris, it is not.
You can install as many copies of bash as you like, if you don't install
them as /bin/sh, Garnome will break. The solution is to edit the broken
Garnome files and replace /bin/sh with $SHELL or some such, and set $SHELL
to be a POSIX shell.
You'll also need to fix a lot of other things, unless much has changed
since the last time I built Garnome on Solaris.
