Well gcc is a compiler. You can't expet to have this big fat thing on
this few disks.
WWU> Where do I find, and what is cpp? Is it part of libc? The version of

bin86, or you won't be able to compile/install the kernel.

That would depend on what you want to archive. Maybe you could write
such document (maybe as a mini-howto) after your experience?
It would be a snap, if you had an internet connection with Linux. You
would then simply use apt. apt-get install gcc would fetch gcc and all
other packages it needs and install them.
