I am trying to install grass5.0beta2 on my MkLinux system which did have
grass5.0beta running on it succsesfully.

I placed grass5.0beta2.tar.gz in /usr/local and did a gzip -d.  I then did
tar -xvf on the resulting grass5.0beta.tar.  After untarring I cd'd into
the new directory grass5.0beta and ran ./configure both as a user, and then
as root (after I had the problem below) everything seemed to go well with
the last few lines of the data parsed to the screen from configure
reading...

<SNIP>
checking for xdr_int in -lsun... (cached) no
checking for xdr_int in -lnsl... (cached) yes
creating ./config.status
creating Makefile
creating src/CMD/head/head
creating src/scripts/shells/create_fifos.sh
creating src/include/config.h
src/include/config.h is unchanged

I then ran "make install" and received this error?...

install -d -m 755 /usr/local/grass-5.0b /home/grass/.bashrc
UNIX_BIN=/usr/local/bin SRC=`pwd` /bin/sh src/CMD/generic/CREATE_GMAKE.sh
/bin/sh: /home/grass/.bashrc: Permission denied
make: *** [pre-install] Error 126

Any ideas?
