No, FULL means FULL. USER + GCC means you'll be lacking all sorts of development tools. User tools provide you tools that you use as a "user" of an Unix style system (ls, cd, shells such as bash, etc); Full gives you tools to develop code as well (linker, assembler, compiler, etc). This is a very reasonable question (I'm surprised it's not asked more often!), and if this is not in the FAQ, it should be. Your installation is somehow botched. Without more information, nobody here can help, sorry. You probably have GCC_EXEC_PREFIX defined in the environment (or have GNAT installed -- if so, please complain to GNAT folks to avoid screwing up the rest of the compilers on your system!), or you have not followed the instructions in installing the compilers. Provide the following information: 1. For cygwin, provide the output of cygcheck: $ cygcheck -s -r 2. your environment variables (env in Cygwin, set in DOS/Win9x/NT) 3. compiler version and some runtime info: $ gcc -v filename.c provides lots of good information.
