[avr-gcc-list] grrr, what am I doing wrong ???

[Lee Mitchell]

Hi folks,
    I have previously been using a quite old version of avr-gcc. Now, before
i start work on a new project, i decided to upgrade my tools to the latest
version.
I downloaded the avrgcc20010211.exe file and ran it installing the tools in
c:\avrgcc

However, when I try and build the libraries by runing the install program in
c:\avrgcc
I get the following errors and the libraries are not compiled.
I am using Windows 95 and have tried to install the tools on 2 machines
(both win95) and have had the same failure on both machines.

rm -fr avr3
rm -fr avr4
rm -fr avr5
rm -fr libc
rm -fr libm
rm -f  *.o
rm -f  *.a
mkdir avr3
mkdir avr4
mkdir avr5
mkdir avr3\libc
mkdir avr4\libc
mkdir avr5\libc
mkdir avr3\libm
mkdir avr4\libm
mkdir avr5\libm
mkdir libc
mkdir libm
avr-gcc -x

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am due to start writing code
within the next few weeks !
