Hi Imam,

I suggest you start with a binary build of ghc.

You can get the binary for 6.6.1 here:
http://haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_661.html#x86linux

Or get the latest version:
http://haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_683.html#x86linux

If you really want to, you can then rebuild from source.

Doing an unregisterised "HC" build is a lot of work and for your
platform it's quite unnecessary.
