Beware:  I'm really new with djgpp.

Here's what I've done:

My hard drive is partitioned into many different letters.  I have installed 
DJGPP onto drive f: in the \djgpp directory.

Then, I downloaded Allegro, and put it on e:, in the \allegro directory.

So, what I did was log to f:, and switch to the \djgpp\bin directory.

Then, I logged to e:, and switched to my \allegro directory.

Then I typed "make" and hoped that it would compile allegro for me.

It did not.

It gave me an error msg (sorry, it isnt exact, but i didnt write it down):
 something like: 'make.exe**:  ["/obj/djgpp/somethin.o"]  Error -1'

I dont know why it has done this.

I have the newest versions of everything (djgpp, make, gcc, allegro, etc.) 

What can I do to fix it?

Any help would be appreciated.  Respond via email if at all possible.

thank you.
