The file release-2.2.2d contains a list of _all_ needed files (the above
ain't it). Be absolutely certain that you get the README and release*
files.
After you get the files, put them all into a dedicated directory
(/usr/tmp/gcc-install is fine), make certain you have the kernel sources
online (prefereably in /usr/src/linux), then run the shell script
install.2.x with the command
sh 2.2.2d /usr/src/linux
and follow instructions given by the shell script.
This should be all you need to do to install gcc. Persons with some
experience and not suffering from reading difficulties should also be
able to follow the directions given in the README and release-2.2.2d
files, which say just about the same thing as the above (I think; the
above is from memory, and I'm tired, so if the docs say something else,
I'm wrong).
