Installing gcc compiler on Linux

Hi,

I'm new to Linux.
I am having trouble installing the gcc compiler on a SuSe 9.0 server (via CLI).

I have unzipped the gcc 4.1.0 source code, which I got from the gcc website. But I don't really know what to do next such as how I build/configure gcc.

I've looked over the official gcc documentation, and various other sources, but so far I haven't had any success. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
 
Linux without gcc is as dead as a rock. Trust me you need it.

Can you quote the error? Do you have gcc previously installed?

btw I'm surprised you didn't have gcc already on your Suse box.
 
Sorry, I read your post again. Seems like you have no compiler whatsoever.

Try installing gcc from your Suse CD/DVD or download the installer (I think its an RPM). You need a compiler to compile a compiler here, but you have none.
