Thanks Russ Allbery,
I installed glibc-devel and its deps, and watched it make the proper files
and directories. I also lost 40 megs of disk space! There is no way I can
use this on my normal 200 meg hard drive, 486 server installs .. its a
shame.
But its compiling! Judging by the speed of the first 10 lines I am should
try and sleep while it finishes, but thats not going to happen.
Thanks for taking the time to check that for me you basically solved the
problem.now.
I can go on to step 4 woo hooo!
