Going to take another look at the site to see if I got the right tar.

Chirp does not need compiling, just download tarball and unpack. Enter
the directory where unpacked and run ./chirpw

I guess I left out the most important fact responsible for the error
message, which is the OS on the NetBook is Debian Squeeze v6, to which
doing a major update to is not an option.
Have tried installing the latest version of Chirp under that, but there
are just too many errors in compile making that not feasible. And since
there is no .Deb distribution package available, compiling source is the
only option.
That was my main reason for becoming interested in a LiveBoot
application on a USB stick, to bypass all that hassle.
I have managed to create the Ubuntu based TharPuppy stick to boot from,
so now perhaps I'll be able to install the latest version of Chirp for
Ubuntu.
And the problem would be solved...
I was thinking that if someone here had built a RAM boot/run image
specifically for (with) Chirp, it might save me some time.
Shame on me for wanting to save time, and not duplicate efforts done by
another already...
I'll just schlog along on my own and see how things turn out.
