Hello, I installed cygwin on my PC (intel PIII) running winXP. I want now to install a C compiler like GCC, so that I can run some C programs. I cannot install GCC from the tar file because it needs a c compiler itself for its installation. Where should I begin? I downloaded Borland free C compiler and installed it. Entered the path in /etc/profile, and get the message c compiler cannot create executables. I downloaded a Redhat RPM installer for cygwin, and downloaded the gcc.rpm from red hat, but when I run rpm --install gcc...rpm, I get the message this RPM installer can work with major numbers <=3. Can you tell me what is the best way for someone to get GCC installed on a PC which has cygwin on it? Thank you
