I'm resisting the temptation to `dance' just yet. This is the first non-distro
program I've attempted to install to Linux, so I'll be surprised if this sees
the echo.

Questions: (See `Generic' at end first.)

I'm using Mandrake 6. Shouldn't this RedHat port be more 
apropos than the mm-linux-i386elf? 

After setting execute permission, and trying ./mm-qnx-i386 
while in /root, bash reports the file doesn't exist. I know 
it does, as when I try to execute the file without permission,
I am denied access. Which leadsme to believe:

Should I be installing these programs to a /*bin directory?

>		mm-linux-i386elf

I'm only able to run the program from a command prompt. When 
I attempt to run it from an X-Windows session, I have to do 
so from inside a terminal emulator, and then, the alias I've 
defined seems inactive.

Where do I find the docs/FAQ/HOWTO/man/info files? 

Apologies if this is better left to a Linux echo. As it may be of interest to
others here...
