ok, i got it configuring, then about 3 or 4 minutes later i get a message updating cache ./config.status ./configure: /bin/sh: not found now, i tryed to make a directory bin with sh in it, but there was already a file there called bin (no extension) and i couldn't make the directory. I opened the file up in notepad, and it was the symbolic link that i made earlier. what do i do now?
