Hi Eljay, Thanks for your help.. I have finally succeeded in installing Gcc3.2.... :-).. But all my test suites arent success when I do make check-gcc RUNTESTFLAGS="execute.exp" I get FAIL: gcc.c-torture/execute/20020307-2.c exe FAIL: gcc.c-torture/execute/20020307-2.c exe FAIL: gcc.c-torture/execute/20020307-2.c exe FAIL: gcc.c-torture/execute/20020307-2.c exe unroll-loops FAIL: gcc.c-torture/execute/20020307-2.c exe unroll-all-loops -finline-functions FAIL: gcc.c-torture/execute/20020307-2.c exe any idea why this happens Thanks Tina --- Eljay Love-Jensen <eljay@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Tina, > > >is this correct? > > No, not entirely.
