Hi I am still trying to install Xfree4.01.

When I run the Xinstall.sh script, I get told :

ln: cannot create hard link "gnu-tar" to "extract" : Operation not permitted.

I am SU and logged in as ROOT.

my GNU-TAR works with just tar...and if I try to manually link extract to tar...Operation not permitted.

Any help welcome.

Try a soft link. ln -s /path-to-tar/tar /your-exe-path/extract

Regards Ian
