but this is the error I have
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): 
.git


I dont know what happened, i have tried for a few days.

BTW, should I place my dmd2 folder at ~ or /usr/local/share. 
which will have less prblem in installing and maintaining?

Thanks

Nothing in the phobos build process (either the instructions or 
posix.mak) mention git, so I have no idea what's going on there.

Do you actually need to build phobos? Some distros have packages 
available for dmd.

He said it was from the bottom of the page at
http://dlang.org/dmd-linux.html

which says:

	cd ~/dmd2/src/druntime
	make -f posix.mak DMD=~/dmd2/linux/bin/dmd
	cd ../phobos
	make -f posix.mak DMD=~/dmd2/linux/bin/dmd
