Hrm, ok.. So you're using RH AS2.1 with e.30 SMP kernel.
It doesn't give any real errors unfortunately.
So lets start with some basic questions and tests.
How did you gain 'root' access? Brief guess based on prompt was (at least) a 'su -'. This is good.
What directory are you doing the configure in, and what's the output of 'ls -ld .' from that directory?
Next thing is a quick check of gcc. Start with the output of 'ls -ld $(which gcc)' in a bourne shell, and possibly the output of 'rpm -q gcc'
Next is verifying you've got include files to play with, namely 'rpm -q kernel-headers' and 'ls -l /usr/include'.
If all of these are good, then try to compile something simple:
------------- junk.c ----------------
#include
int main(int *argc, char *argv[]){
printf( "Welcome. This is your world!\n");
}
------------- junk.c ----------------
then type the following 3 commands:
gcc junk.c -o junk
ls -l junk
./junk
These commands should create the bare-bones C source for a simple 'Hello World' application, list it, then execute it.
Lets see if we get this far first ;) If you've got a development system installed, you should get through all of the listed commands without any errors..
Post back with results!
One long-haired git at your service...
