First time run thru I get the following: cp: cannot create regular file `/var/cache/man/whatis': No such file or director y /bin/awk: not found /bin/awk: not found /bin/awk: not found /bin/awk: not found This repeats a couple times. If I manually create the 'missing' directory the cp error clears up but I still get several lines regarding the /bin/awk error. Everything else seems to work fine I just wanted to get the man pages going. Advice please?
