!GCC and Virtual Acorn

After buying VA5000 version 1.2 CD a long time ago, I finally got round to having a look at the C compiler GCC preinstalled in the VA CD. How do I get it to work?

When ever i try and run gcc from the Command line I get a error message about not enough memory and asks me in increase the Wimpslot?

Any ideas how to fix it? Currently running the latest version of VA 1.4.

Thanks.

Download a new version of !GCC, some VA5000 CDs had a corrupted version.

I've tried the lastest BETA 3 and the latest stable version - both with the same error messages.

Can you please advise of a version number of GCC that have been tried and tested with VA5000?

I do have acorn C/C++ compiler I could use, but thats over 9 years out of date. At least GCC is more recent.

Thanks.

Have you tried increasing the wimpslot as per the instructions?

It should be in the apps !Run file
