3.1. Stuff you will need
Basically, you need two different things: software that is already running on your machine (eg., pre-installed by your distribution) and packages of source-code for different programs.
3.1.1. Software you will need
-
a running gcc
-
an older version of glibc ;-)
-
GNU-binutils
-
GNU-make
-
the GNU-core-utils
-
GNU-tar
-
bash or any shell you prefer
-
very useful but not a must: Midnight Commander
-
an editor you like (vi, jed, etc.)
