Can't execute a file since bad interpreter

[gopikrish]

After mounting my floppy and untarring a .tar file, I executed one file called as "configure" using the command ./configure and it said,
bash: ./configure: /bin/bash: bad interpreter: permission denied

So how to successfully execute that file?

You need to add the "exec" option in the floppy drive entry in /etc/fstab.

But you should really copy the files to the harddrive first. Compiling on a floppy will be very slow. :)
