I have managed to get bash 1.06 running on our SGI Personal IRISes
(SYSV 3.1d OS). There is one problem that is catastrophic.
If I make bash a login shell then doing something like:
ls -ual .[a-z]* | less
will bring the whole system down! Needless to say I'm not prepared to
experiment any further. If bash is not a login shell, like doing exec bash
from within csh, then there is no problem.
Is this a bug in bash or the IRIS operating system?
Thanks for any help,
