DSL 0.8.2 installed on my hard disk. During the install it errored out saying it couldn't install extended, but instead installed standard.

I tried to ./configure IceWM. It bombed saying I had no compiler. No problem, I just did this:

ln -s tcc gcc

Now the ./configure went through quite a bit of its stuff. But then, while checking cpp, it errored out like this:

root@box:/usr/bin# cpp
cpp: installation problem, cannot exec `cpp0': No such file or directory
root@box:/usr/bin#

A use of the find command showed there's no cpp0 file on the entire hard disk. Where do I go from here?

Download and install the gcc1.dsl extension. It contains make, gcc, g++ compiler utilities.

Also, there is an icewm extension at the web site too it you don't want to compile it from source.

I used apt-get to install gcc2.95, and I'm trying to install VICE. The problem: GCC2.95's preprocessor fails the sanity check.

I wonder what I may be missing...???

use the gcc.dsl.
It works fine for me

gcc.dsl isn't available through click-and-load. Where might I find this extension otherwise?

OOPS... I found it, so never mind the previous post. Now the question becomes, "How do I adapt the .dsl after downloading it?"

adapt ?

open emelfm as user dsl..
left click on the gcc1.dsl to highlight it..
left click on the mydsl button at the top/middle of emelfm..
wait for the screen to flash, and the cpu monitor to return to 0%..
enjoy..
