I installed Puppy Linux. Then I installed Emacs23. Finally I compiled sbcl 1.1.3 in Ubuntu, saved it with (save-lisp-and-die "sb.cl" :executable t), and put a copy of the sb.cl compiler into usr/bin. Everything worked fine with Lisp and Emacs. Then I tried to install gcc. However, when I try to compile a gcc program, Puppy Linux complains that it cannot find tools, libraries or include files. How to install everything I need to work with gcc?

How did you install gcc?
With puppy all you need to do is load the _devx.sfs corresponding to your puppy version.
I.e if you use slacko5.4 you have to download slacko_5.4devx.sfs and load it with sfs-load-on-the-fly.

Which Puppy version?

Puppy is stripped down, and does not include a compiler by default.

The compiler bundle (and other development tools) reside in a .sfs file.

For example, if you are running 5.28:

http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/puppy-5.2.8/

You grabbed "lupu-528.005.iso", burned it to CD and booted it.

Once you get done, and created your frugal install, you grab "lupu_devx_528-4.sfs" (the developer tools) and put it in the same directory as your save file.

Then you open:

Code:
Menu >> System >> Bootmanager configure bootup.


Move the devx file above to the right side of the widget, close and reboot.

On the next boot, it will load this bundle, and your gcc compiler.

edu500ac,

There is a little How-To on this subject at http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=82542. It also goes into a little detail about kernel module compiling, too.
