I am having trouble installing DJGPP after 
downloading all the files according the filepicker 
on DJ Delorie's website. Im installing in W95 and I think
that Its all run a DOS console application if I use it 
through RHIDE, (right?).

(I also downloaded the sources and extra documention but Im not 
 installing those, since they are not executables , right?)

Using winzip to unpack my files, when I get to gdb418b.zip, it 
has a file called bin.info 262,566 bytes dated 5/06/99, if I let 
winzip continue it overwrites a previous file called bin.info 2889
bytes
dated 2/28/00. Is this a good thing or a bad thing, what do I do?

IF this problem comes up again with two other files later in 
the installation, what do I do?

Thanks
