I just installed a DJGPP using the automatic package selector on a
486 PS/1 with 8 MB RAM, running DOS 5. Installation went well.
go32-v2 gives 6 MB free for the first value. (Sorry, forget exactly
what they're called. If you need that info, easy to get.) I just
started up a series of compilations to build a gcc-mediated
application which is known to run and compile well.
gcc is happy with about 5 of 27 of its pieces -- no error messages
in any of them. When it gets to the 6th, the compilation seems
to take forever. There is disk activity. I issued the SIGINT
using Ctrl-Break and the snapshot came back saying it was in a page
fault. The Error=6. I'm not sure if that happened because of the
Ctrl-Break going awry or it is the underlying problem.
I will run this again tonight, letting it go longer.
Any hints on what to collect from gcc's environment or running
using gdb are welcome.
Also, while I've run gcc and gdb and bash many times before, it
was always on a Solaris or Ultra or Alpha. Not quite sure what
to expect in this DOS environment. (Not my choice.)
I don't understand the deal that go32-v2 interrogates. Is that
something which,
(1) Needs to be installed in something like an autoexec.bat or
the makefile.bat?
(2) Needs to be run once per session however?
(3) Just interrogates the status of something which gcc and the
other DJGPP tools set up for themselves?
(4) I so misunderstand that these questions are off the mark.
Thought is I didn't do any go32-v2 this time around. Could that
be related? Configuration hasn't changed in-between, however: Didn't
tamper with config.sys or autoexec.bat. I'll also try the variation
of the compiles running go32-v2 first.
TIA,
