So i used the MyDSL Extension Panel and I could choose System, then gcc1.dsl because I need the make command.  I begin downloading it to the temp directory.  Then once its done and opening, I get this error pop-up!  It says "Alert", has a blue exclamation mark inside a white box, and "OK".  No error message with it!!  :(

Then I can't open up ANY of my applications installed!! Not even the Xterminal!!  I can't even reboot!!  I hit alt ctrl delete and begin the shutdown command, but it says something about not being able to find "knoppix-reboot" or something and hangs there.

So then I unplug the power from my laptop and reboot.  I download the file and through Emeflm I click on MyDSL so it would install.  Then it starts giving me a TON of error messages and again, read the paragraph above this one.  

WTF is up?!  If you want I can get the error messages.

I take it you are running from a live-cd or frugal?

you might be running out of ram space. gcc1.dsl is a VERY large extension.

What are you wanting yo compile/install?

Odds are, we already have a mydsl package for it.

i don't understand.  i want to install the gcc1.dsl package for the make command.   i also need to install the alsa package for audio support.  and dpkg for apt-get.

i assume i can't install these packages because of the frugal install i did or something.  how can i install them to the hard drive?
