Kevin, I'm trying to download the DVD version (much larger likely to fail). If it fails, I may try the bit torrent (another can of worms for a windows box to install) or I may run to the book store to buy the Fedora 10 bible w/ DVD included. I think that is the DVD you are talking about. Again, thank you for the help. I believe you have diagnosed my problem differently than I had. You can't set the environment variables correctly to complile when there is no complete compile environment. I'll post success if I get it (that is on the final NS-2 goal). It looks like I have at least a day of effort on this (waiting for the download and all). Best Regards, John An apprentice comes to his master and says, "Master, I have just created the next generation editor. It seamlessly handles text, audio, video, and images. It integrates with all know development environments and is portable across all know hardware platforms and operating systems." The master bonks the apprentice on the head and says, "You idiot, I don't want to learn a new editor." :) -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Kevin Kofler Sent: Sunday, April 05, 2009 1:29 PM To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Building gcc and NS-2 Problems John wrote: > It was for sure a CD not a DVD. Then it was certainly not the installer DVD. Most likely it was a live CD. (And yes, those are installable. The default downloads on the current download page are live CDs.) GCC is only included on the DVD.
