- Wonderful! Is 1.6 ready for MacMinix yet? If so, where can I get it?

- So this one has 32-bit block numbers and longer names? How long?

- I was just trying to install symlink on MacMinix 1.5.10.7... and a patch hunk
- failed :(....
-
- When the patch failed, I surmised that a) if I try to install symlink on
- 1.5.10.7, some patches will fail and b) if I install it on 1.5.10.0 and
- then try to upgrade to 1.5.10.7, the _upgrade_ patches will probably fail.
-
- Anyone know for sure? Anyone have 1.5.10.7 w/symbolic links that can point
- me in the right direction?
-
- I'm primarily interested because I want to compile gcc 2.3.3 (the latest and
- greatest) and can't even configure it. A coupla nice folx sent me some i386
- stuff, but I doubt this would produce the right code for my machine.
-
- I have the source all ready to go... (all 20 megs of it)
-
- Anyways, thanks in advance.
