After royally screwing up my first attempt at installing GCC2.2.2d (I
started doing it the old way), I gave it another shot last night. I
started with a clean installation of the Linux 0.97 source, as explained
in the Linux documentation. Then I applied the first patch. Then
I installed GCC2.2.2d as explained in the GCC2.2.2d documentation, and
after that I installed the second Linux patch and the TCP/IP stuff and
everything compiled nicely! Great job, guys.
A suggestion for anyone having problems with GCC2.2.2d: READ THE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS!!!
