All,
I recently asked the list some questions about getting GNU Radio up
and running on a Windows machine (using cygwin). It became obvious
there would be a lot of hurdles, for which the community would not be
able to offer much help. So...

I have installed Ubuntu on a PC ( in a dual boot configuration with
Win7 ) <-- this is its own drama LOL

I tried to follow the "Installing GNU Radio step(s) outlined on
https://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/InstallingGR/23
using the script via
wget http://www.sbrac.org/files/build-gnuradio && chmod a+x
./build-gnuradio && ./build-gnuradio

It's worth noting that you're looking at an old version of that page. In the current version the #1 suggested way to install GNU Radio is through your distribution's package manager. sudo apt-get install gnuradio will get you running in a few minutes.
