This is a known bug in configure that occurs with nodenames of 2, 3 or 4
characters. The easy way out is to edit the files
/usr/sys/conf/{xenixconf,master}. Just look for the line in each file
that references "nodename" and edit in your system name between the quotes.
Then just do a make, link_xenix and then hdinstall to rename the old
xenix and copy the new one to "/". When you reboot, you should be
in business.
