I'm using the MinGW-1.1.tar.gz distribution on Win2K (no sp) without problems, neither with MSYS 1.0.x, nor normal Win2k shell nor Cygwin. Please show _exactly_ the commands you enter since you launch the shell, their output and the PATH environment variable setting so we can see how to reproduce the problem. Also, it would be helpful if you include the directory listing of the mingw\bin directory (where gcc.exe is). -- Oscar |
