Okay. I thought I had done something like that.
I cycled through bashes history and found I did:
make config
which was unsuccessful.

make    worked.

mine are similar and set to
/usr/src/squeak/platforms
/usr/src/squeak/src

Did that.

Then...

root at ... bld # ../platforms/unix/config/configure
checking sanity of VMMaker src directory... bad
missing file: /usr/src/squeak/src/plugins.ext

So I...
root at ... bld # nano -w /usr/src/squeak/src/plugins.int

slightly edit and rename plugins.ext

Then...

root at ... bld # ../platforms/unix/config/configure
checking sanity of VMMaker src directory... bad
missing dir: /usr/src/squeak/src/plugins

Is there really supposed to be a plugins directory there?

I have a plugins dir in .../Cross and .../unix.

Thanks for your help.
