After I type configure it runs I guess the following is were I run in to the problem.
creating src/Makefile
sed: can't read c: No such file or directory
sed: can't read c:/circle-3.1//circle-3.1/src/Makefile.in: No such file or direc
tory
creating src/util/Makefile
sed: can't read c: No such file or directory
sed: can't read c:/circle-3.1//circle-3.1/src/util/Makefile.in: No such file or
directory
creating src/conf.h
cat: c: No such file or directory
cat: c:/circle-3.1//circle-3.1/src/conf.h.in: No such file or directory
src/conf.h is unchanged
Configuration completed. To compile, type: cd src; make

After that I go into src/makefile
and then it comes up with the following and then freezes.
$ src/smakefile

I'm going to assume you are using Cygwin and the official Circle distro. If this so...check the following:

1) You should be in the circle directory when you type configure. Meaning all you type is ./configure

2) Check your mounts, by using the mount command. They should match up with what's in the install documentation. For example on my machine as a partial list I have:

C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
c: on /cygdrive/c type system (binmode)

Yours may not match exactly, however it is important that (binmode) be on on every single mount point. And it is important that root "/" point to your cygwin directory, and that c: above is addressable. If not make them so. (see cygwin doc or man mount).

The message "sed: can't read c: No such file or directory" leads me to think this is a mount issue.

So to change the mount I use the cd and then put in the mount that I would like to use. I am really new with this.

So how exactly do I get this portion to work. This is what happens when I type makefile.

You switch to the circle base directory and type

./configure

If it doesn't fail like yours did according to your first message, only then do you switch to the src directory and type

./make

Not ./makefile!

I dont have a MAKE command in that dir. I only have a makefile. And when I went and redownload cgywin so that I could get configure/cc. And I didnt see any make commands.

Sorry just type make. The command should be found in the path not the local directory. The configure script is the one provided by the Circle distro. Of course like I said, if configure hasn't run correctly as the messages you posted previously do indicate, do not expect much of make.

I type make and it doesnt do anything. It say that dir. or command does not exist.

Then run setup again and fetch it.
