Re: [Mingw-users] mingw32-gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `as'

[William E. <MrU...@po...>]

Jon,

  I downloaded the source files from Sourceforge and compiled and 
installed them.
The files that did not need compiling I copied to /usr/local/mingw32 
directory.

This is my third attempt to install Mingw32 on my FC8 laptop. I had it 
installed and
working on FC6, but the upgrade lost it and I had to reinstall. I first 
tried the
install script and that failed. I then tried the RPMs and that installed 
but did not
work.

I really need to get Mingw32 installed to port an app over to Windozes. 
Any help
will be very appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

William.
