Re: installation: cc and gcc how to?

Dear Nil,
Yes, the important thing is to use the MIPS compilers, not
gcc. You have your choice of compiler environments -- I suggest using
the 64-bit compilation model (CC="cc -64") -- you can use much bigger
buffer caches that way if you have sufficient RAM. --Bob
