Hello, I got DJGPP 2.02, Allegro 3.9.31, GCC 2.95.2, DOS box in W95, etc
etc, compiled with -g, not with -s, I try to debug it and I get this:

Fri 03-03-2000 3:55:15.13
F:\dev\FASDK\bin> dir /b
a.exe

Fri 03-03-2000 3:52:24.97
F:\dev\FASDK\bin> gdb a.exe

(gdb) run
`f:/dev/fasdk/bin/a.exe' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.
Starting program: f:/dev/fasdk/bin/a.exe
Load failed for image f:/dev/fasdk/bin/a.exe

Fri 03-03-2000 3:52:43.43
F:\dev\FASDK\bin>

First question: What does that error mean?
Second question: How do I fix it?

Do the sources need to be in the same dir as the debugged program?
Because they are in a different directory...


TIA
