Which version of VirtualBox? (Latest stable is 4.1.20.) Was VT-X enabled? What host OS (Windows?) ? > installed the latest DJGPP, and tried to run gcc from there... >From /current/ ?

The last time it did that to me, I had accidentally forgotten to install some needed too (e.g. BinUtils!!) or setup %DJGPP% correctly. Latest versions don't seem to tell you very well when that happens. At risk of stating the obvious (to someone who clearly knows what he's doing), what does your /manifest/ directory look like? At (ultra bare) minimum, you need these three files: djdev203.zip bnu222br4.zip gcc471b.zip unzip -q *.zip -d c:\djgpp path c:\djgpp\bin;%PATH% set DJGPP=c:\djgpp\djgpp.env gcc -v Should work fine then. I don't know the minimum RAM needed, but I assume you had a reasonable amount setup. > Is there any known incompatibility > between the DJGPP GCC and FreeDOS? No, because I run it natively atop FreeDOS (at least /beta/ , same version, but I blindly assume /current/ works too), and it's fine. > I'm using the stock Jemmex manager, > but tried with bare HIMEMX and XMGR with same result... I use XMGR, so if you tried that and it still failed, you either misconfigured it or something else is afoot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
