I am having a problem with BASH and GNU MAKE on NT40.

In my makefile, I have the following command:

> $(SOURCE_PATH)/%: $(USER_SOURCE_PATH)/%/main.mk force
>    @cd $@;   /
>     $(MAKE) -f $(MAKE_DIR)/one.mk MAKE_FILE=$ < $(MAKE_TARGET)

when gnu make tries to execute the 'cd' command above, it fails,
returning a sintax
error.   Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Thanks.
Brian.
