I was trying to install CDrecord 2.00.3 and in the readme it said to use the command cp Gmake.linux /usr/bin to install Gmake as the gnu make wouldn't compile it correctly. I did that and now when I type "make" , "make clean", "make install" nothing happens. Does anyone know what exactly I have done? And how the heck I undo it.
Just to confirm as I am an decidedly stupid in all this, I should be in a console, type xterm, go to the directory where the make file is, and it should do it, right?

I got CDrecord 1.9 to work by installing it using YAST2 in SUSE 7.1 but I can't install Xcdroast 0.98 which was the whole point of the exercise. I should mention I am new at this.
Sorry if this is the wrong forum.

Thanks

try to locage gmake, maybe the new make command is gmake, but don't know really, only speculating

Thanks for the suggestion, I actually managed to figure it out. Somewhere in my 5 hours of trying to figure out what I did I uninstalled the make command. Ooops

Anyway, thanks.
