Hallo again! I just checked that I have all the requested tools (from building guide) with at least the requiered version number. Then I set all the variables mentioned in the user manual. Then I extracted the ghc-4_08.tar.gz to the usual place and went to ..../fptools/ . Then I ran ./configure >configure.out and make boot >boot.out. What appeared on screen is in the screen file. I hope that helps to clarify why I need autoconf. All the best, Andreas
