  Help w/install _or_ It all went so well

(...) [...] (...) Well it looks like the gcc-version-problem I had. The gcc >=3.x do not allow multiline strins without "\" anymore, which are still uses in brickos. So my hint is to install a gcc 2.95 and everything should work fine... Note: This (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Or ( IMO ) better yet, just macro every line between 152 and 171, that's what I did, saved the trouble of another install... Put this on each line around the assembly code: __asm__(""); Make sure you keep the indent spacing also: label: should be: (...) (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Did you consider using my all-in-one pre-built installers? (URL) work well with XP & W2K (and presumably Win2003). There are problems with earlier OS versions. I've had several people tell me that using these pre-built installers was much (...) (21 years ago, 18-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
