Instructions ? What instructions ? ;-)
I went to Gavin Kinseys site, grabbed the archive, unpacked it into
GG: and then tried to use ppc-amigaos-gcc instead of gcc.
Even a simple "ppc-amigaos-gcc hello.c" would reboot my machine after
a few seconds.

Hmmmm, my original GCC install was a snapshot release from
geekgadgets.org (out of date by to much ?)... is the ADE: the EGS
stuff from Aminet ?

There seems to be a lot of different releases of the same software
floating about, it would be nice if someone could update the Aminet
archive so the "proper" install is easy to find. I would be quite
willing to upload a working install to Aminet if someone could help
me piece one together (T3 internet connections are so useful)

I can't remember if I used a stack that high (think I only use 100000
by default) I'll try a higher number tonight.

If you could tell me where I can get the uptodate pieces of the
puzzle I'll assemble them and put them up somewhere for all to get
(if it is required)

Thanks
