So, you don't have gcc in your PATH..?
If you just type gcc --version <enter>, does it give you anything?
atleast it should ;)
if it doesn't, try with cc --version <enter> and something like
i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc --version <enter>
go to /tools/bin and see if you can find gcc, cc and
i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc, while in that directory, run ./gcc --version
<enter> (if you found gcc there of course)
cc1 is only a part of the gcc, it does only a part of the compiling
process ;) (C->ASM)
