thought you'd be interested...
I just installed linux using the kernel under
/redhat/3.0.4/i386

which I guess is version4?

well, at any rate, the csh.cshrc causes multiple problems with
$initdir's cshrc.

I haven't really figured it out, yet, but it seems as if allowing it
to set the prompt causes $initdir's cshrc to not source
$HOME/.cshrc.mine, and causes other similarly odd problems.
and something else in there prevents the line_edit commands.

I don't pretend to understand, but, I mved the csh.cshrc file, and
things seem much happier.

other frobs I did were:
added a "set host = ..." in the initdir's cshrc, and 
added a if (! $?NOCALLS) set path = (/bin/athena)
to avoid attach errors.

otherwise, things went rather smoothly for me.

Derek.
