I am sorry. The link I referenced was from Earnie Boyd that I got from this
group a while back. I spent a decent amount of time there in trying to set
up my directory structure and mounting the drives. I followed the links at
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/ to download gcc 2.95 and the available
instruction for setting this up for doing the configuring and making of gcc.
Earnie's page had a "good starting point" for my directory structure, but
nothing directly related to gcc. I was pretty sure that I didn't have my
directories mounted correctly. I wasn't trying anything fancy and the gcc
stuff wasn't working. I was trusting that the gcc stuff would work if I
followed their instructions, so I was guessing that Cygnus was getting
confused with how I had set up my environment.
For Dony, the text file attached is Earnie's page that I was referencing. I
also spent a good amount of time in
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/cygwin-ug-net/cygwin-ug-net.html, which
you can follow links to from Earnie's page. This is the Cygwin's users
guide. Very informative as well. Maybe I am not reading enough or putting
the correct readings together?

Subject: Re: Making GCC 2.95.2 Problems
Hello,
I cannot visit
http://www.freeyellow.com/members5/gw32/GettingStarted.html
Can you download this page and mail a copy to me, please?
I will follow this page to build my gcc tools.
Thanks very much.
