I'm trying to up-grade my linux-0.99.10 gcc compiler and libraries
to 4.4.1. I originally installed SLS 1.01, so files and directories
are arranged according to that distribution's organization. Using
gcc-2.3.3, I compiled and installed gcc-2.4.5 successfully. I
then successfully compiled the linux libc-4.4.1 static routines.
Then I tried to compile the linux libc-4.4.1 shared library, but I
got the error message
for l in libc.a libtermcap.a libcurses.a libdbm.a libcompat.a libgcc.a libalias.

Since I was following the advice posted to c.o.l to another person
about up-grading that included installing tools-2.7.5, I then
tried to compile those routines. I get the same error message,
not being able to find /usr/dll/bin/mkimage, there, too.
Can somebody help me? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
