[Mono-list] Problems setting up MONO for research

[Vijay R. Nair]

Hi All/Miguel
 We at UCSB are doing a project for our computer science course
on Programming languages on the features and effeciency ofthe mono system
However during setup we have a few problems .WE started out with
procdure mentioned onthe web site . The first problem we ran into was
ofcourse the change in code and also the version of autoconf . Once we
fixed this we could not install it because it apparently never found
glib.h . Howver, when we changed the path in the env variables, to point
to the relevant direcotries it did .Now we are left with this hurdle,a
snapshot of which is given below. It apparently bombed because it didnt
find setup.exe? Or isit somehting else? Please help Your help inthis
regard will be appreciated !

P.s we are trying to create a documentation on the setup procedure too
. The instructions say to execute in the mcs directory, however  on
exectuion of ./configure --prefix=//c/mono it says theres no such file
. When we ran autogen it worked. WE hope this is the right way. If so,
please make appropriate changes in your install doc. Hope this helps in
your documentation effort and mainting its quality.
