Since, in this special case, it's the SAMS publishing company that is
making money out of selling you that book, not the DJGPP developers
(at least I don't remember having heard of any donations from SAMS, in
this context), it's *them* that ought to have told you how to get the
very basic things done with DJGPP, I'd say. If they didn't, I'd
consider giving back the whole book and requesting a refund.
That said, go to the CD (or you installation of DJGPP made from the
CD), and look for the 'readme.1st' file. If it isn't there, complain
to SAMS and ask them to send you this vital part of DJGPP. Once you
have found it, read it and follow the suggestions in there.
