Hello

I am sorry to post here but it seems there is no Freedos32 group.
I use DJGPP and the makefile provided, and there is an error:
"multiple definition of `_environ'"
I know that means that the symbol environ is used two times, but it is not 
the case in the full sources of Freedos32.
In fact it is used one time, but even when I add an "extern" to the 
definition there is always the same message.
If I understand the error message, the original definition of "environ" 
seems to be in boot.c, but it is not there.
I have make several attempts and many searches on Google, but I still don't 
understand.

Please could you help me?

Jean-Pierre
