This is very embarassing, but I can't get djgpp to compile a simple
program, either from rhide, or gcc. I am useing version 1.4 or rhide,
and have downloaded the 2.80 version of djgpp. I have tested that the
PATH and djgpp environment variable are set up correctly.

When I compile I get the error:
c:/djgpp/tmp/RHaaaaaa/ccaaaaaaa.ii: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
for c++ compiles, and:
c:/djgpp/tmp/RHaaaaaa/ccaaaaaaa.i: No such file or directory (ENOENT)

If I look in /djgpp/tmp, I find that it has managed to create the directory
RHaaaaaa, if I run the compile again, I get the same error as above, but
with directory RHbaaaaa.

When I run gcc, and I get the same error only:
c:/djgpp/tmp/ccaaaaaaa.ii: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
for c++ compiles, and:
c:/djgpp/tmp/ccaaaaaaa.i: No such file or directory (ENOENT)

Just for fun, I rebooted my system and tried to run under windows NT,
rather than windows 95, but it wouldn't rhide didn't work.

The version of Microsoft Windows 95 is 4.00.950. I have 32.0 MB ram,
and 439 MB or hard disc free.

I have the following .zip files to install djgpp, and I have unzipped
all of them (I have checked this a few times!).

djdev201.zip
faq210b.zip
rhide14b.zip
bnu281b.zip
gcc280b.zip
lgpp280b.zip
mak3761b.zip
tzi390b.zip
rsxdj131.zip
gpc112d.zip
gpp2721b.zip

I would be very grateful for any advice on what I have got wrong! I have
read the FAQ, and don't find this problem there. I have read all the install
documents, and it seems that I haven't done anything wrong there.

For what its worth, the hardware that I am using is an HP OmniBook 5700CT,
which runs on an MMX pentium running at 150MHz, the BIOS SystemSoft BIOS
for Opti Viper 557/558E Version 1.01 (2681-02).

I don't think that there is anything else that I have left out!
