This is a novice question, but I need to know before I reserve time on a PC
to transfer down to floppies the huge gcc dist. for MSDOS machines...

From what I understand, dj's gcc won't work on 286 machines because they're
16 bit.  Now 386sx are also 16 bit, so will dj's gcc port still work?

advTHANKSance,
