how install gcc and make?

[lumianic]

hi, i am a new user to linux. I want to install gcc and make into TC, but i fail to do so.
Can anyone kind enough to teach me how to install both of these apps?

If you load the compiletc extension, it will load gcc, make and a bunch of other stuff required to compile in tc.

Also it would be a good idea to have a look at the extension making section of the wiki.

is this page?
then how i should start on? btw, i am new user to linux.

I presume you were looking to install gcc and make in order to compile an application for tinycore - is this what you'd like to do?

If so, which application are you trying to compile?

Note if you're new to linux, maybe it would be better to get used to using tinycore with the many application extensions available via the app browser before moving on to compiling your own applications.

ur guess is right. I want to install gcc and make , so that i can install wifi driver for my laptop. Can you teach me on this?

[Juanito]

Which wifi hardware does your laptop have - maybe the driver is already in the extensions repo?

Hi, avr001!

Open http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net  and in the search field enter "creating+extensions"
You will see a list of topics related to extensions creating. Choose one of them and enjoy )

The very best will be to load the Book from TinyCore site, it will answer a lot of questions and explain the main concepts.
Have a nice reading!

Hello, lumianic and avr001. Install compiletc either via the Apps button on the dock (if you have a GUI) or at the command line with this command:

Code: [Select]

tce-load -wi compiletccompiletc will pull in gcc, make, and a few other extensions you might need.

The wiki page you are looking for is here:
http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/wiki:creating_extensions

P.S. Before embarking on this journey, make sure to browse what's available in the repository. Using either Apps (GUI) or tce-ab (CLI) search for firmware and see what's available. Chances are that what you need is already in the repository.
