`perl -e 'print "$^O\n"';` [download] Update: This of course assumes you already have a working version of Perl somewhere on your system.	[reply] [d/l]

It looks like I have a working version somewhere `/opensource/perl-5.18.0 > perl -e 'print "$^O\n"'; nonstop_kernel` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

This shows the problem. Here you show that `$^O` has the value `nonstop_kernel` where the code you have checks that `$^O` has the value `nonstop-kernel`, so this will always fail for you.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

And this also answers why the if statement does work (it is and underscore not a hyphen). This would work: `if ($^O eq 'nonstop_kernel') { $size = 4096; }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
