(e.g. make) On a typical Linux system, you probably have everything you need. Here is a (potentially incomplete) list: - /bin/sh - make - a C compiler (would be gcc) - assembler, linker (i.e. binutils) - C library header files, C library - ln, etc (i.e. fileutils) > What kernel too? The kernel version is not relevant for GCC, gcc uses only C library calls (which should know how to invoke the kernel). Regards, Martin From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: "Martin v.
