gcc is usually installed on the newer linux installs. If you type which gcc, you should see the path to the binary. I work with AIX unix boxes, and
they do not have a compiler installed, by default. I have to go find a gcc tarball and install it manually. With Mandrake Linux, it is only installed if I select
the developer package as part of the install packages during initial installation. I learned this the hard way. You can also use a package manager to see what is
installed and what is available on the other discs to Be installed.
