I've tried to upgrade to gcc-2.7.2-5 , i've made all the things described above without problems. But my gcc has problems with compilation - there is no stdio.h and many other important .h files! they aren't in /usr/include directory!!!! I've found directory /usr/i486-linuxaout/include with many of these files and i've made link from /usr/include to /usr/i486-linuxaout/include but then when i try to compile something i have error from ld: ld: cannot load crt1.o : no such file or directory. So what's going on?????
