installation under Windows 95

[Mauricio O Calvao]

Hi

I downloaded the file octave-windows-2000oct25d.exe from the sourceforge

site.
I intend to have Octave installed under my Windows 95 PC. I ran the .exe

file and, apparently, it said that the installation was succesfull;
however, when I double-clicked on the desktop icon for Octave there
arose a DOS window, stating that

bash.exe: warning: could not find /tmp, please create!
start: /WINDOWS/COMMAND/start: No such file or directory

I have also checked the subdirectories under E:\Octave (where I decided
to install the software), and the home, the src and the tmp directories
were all empty...

Can you provide some help?

Thank you in advance!
