OK .. Bob ..

But where did it put the required items for GCC? Did it put them in the #:\emx
diretory? That's what I sort of gleaned from reading the readme1st text file
was going to happen.
OK, that being so, I suppose it would modify-overwrite-update whatever was in
the EMX directory to the latest and greatest, together with adding whatever
down-drill it needed for the GCC321 variant to work.
That being so, does what I posted also still have to be in the CONFIG.SYS file
in order to get things going? Or, conversely, in this implementation of GCC,
does the application suite teach itself where the EMX stuff is, and .. in your
case and mine ... if we install GCC in other than C:, we will get a
non-functional operation related to EMX?
If that's true, we are right back to your original question about how do we
move this off C:, yet keep C:\emx, so as to not mung everything else that
depends on it, no?
