Hello there,

I have been working on the upgrade from 1.1 to 1.5.0 but I can't get it
right.

Some of the problems I have:
1. "more" still crashes after the first window

2. "sh" crashes everytime I'm using regular expressions (like "ls -l *.c")
	it gets signal 11 (SIGSEGV).

3. "mkdir" doesn't work,
	it complains: "<directory>: cannot create"
	even if your are the owner of the current the directory
	and have "rwx" permissions to it.

These are the major problems, I have not been testing all commands yet, but
these are the most important ones.

I know that the installation guide says that problem (1) means that I don't
have a 1.5.0 kernel. But I'm sure about using a new compiled kernel,
completed with some known patches (for stmain and ...).
The 'crc'-values in for the kernel, include-files, library and
sh, more and mkdir are ok.

I am not sure about the Makefile's I'm using because they seemed to be
wrong sometimes. 
Probably the problems I have are caused by improper CFLAGS in some
Makefile's.
Could someone mail (or post) the right CFLAGS for all Makefile's.

It was easy to do the upgrade of the library, kernel and others (it could be
done in 2 evenings) but I'm working on this problem for more than 2 weeks
now.
Last sunday I restarted the whole upgrade starting with only the original (1.1)
sources but the problems continued.

I hope somebody can help me  ?????
