Universal Firefox on a USB Key

Having learned that MacOS is working with Linux as its backbone, we modified our Unix script to work for the Mac Firefox. Now we when we executed Firefox for Mac from the USB drive the program hung unexpectedly. It took a long time for the first window to appear and then we could not go any further. In the end we got a working Mac Firefox by taking it off of an existing install.
 
This is a little script we were playing with to isolate the particular flavor of the OS on Windows. If we have to make any platform specific changes we can add it to the specific OS in question.
@echo off
pause
Our Mac script RC1 is as follows:
#!/bin/bash echo "Starting Linux Firefox From USB"  progname="$0" curdir=`dirname "$progname"` progbase=`basename "$progname"` batchpath=${BASH_SOURCE%/*} $curdir/MACOS/firefox --no-remote -profile $curdir/Profiles/UniversalProfile '''<font color="red"><----this line returns the current directory of the shell script</font>'''
