Your source file (/.configure) must have originated from a
Windows-type system, which uses control-M (^M) as part of the line
terminator.  So when the script is interpreted by bash, it tries to
find a file named "/bin/sh^M" which doesn't exist.

Google search for "bad interpreter" will give you plenty of advice
about how to cure this problem.
