Many thanks to all who provided answers. In particular this one, which worked.

Less thanks to those who didn't read the whole of my message.

Incidentally, the -m option isn't strictly a no-op, since when you run mount
it does display the mount as "mixed". Does this means that the functionality
will return in the future?

Yours,

Rob.

You got the wrong configure (notice small "c"). Try to extract Configure from the tar file (this is the bigger one).

I'm having difficulty getting perl to install:

I'm starting with a clean installation of GNU-WIN32 as per the FAQ

I'm then following the instructions given by K.M.Syring, as updated
yesterday. (http://www.edv.agrar.tu-muenchen.de/~syring/gnu-win32/index.html)

I'm assuming that instruction 1. should refer to /srcdir, rather than
srcdir (I have tried both).

When I get to instruction 3 - "sh Configure", the script appears to
run recursively. On screen I get:

bash$ sh Configure
sh Configure -ds -e
sh Configure -ds -e -ds -e
sh Configure -ds -e -ds -e -ds -e
sh Configure -ds -e -ds -e -ds -e -ds -e
