Install the ncurses rpm from the cd (I don't remember the version for 6.0.)
gcc is the compiler, you should have it installed if you plan on compiling
anything.

Subject: Problem in installation of new kernel on RH6.0
Hi everybody,
I found following problem in installing new kernel on RedHat 6.0;
Download and copy linux-2.3.42.tar.gz to /usr/src
# cd /usr/src/
tar zxpvf linux-2.3.42
new kernel source in /usr/src/linux (old kernel source /usr/src/linux-2.2.5)
# cd /usr/src/linux
# make menuconfig
rm -f include/asm
( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm)
make -C scripts/lxdialog all
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux/scripts/lxdialog'
/bin/sh: gcc: command not found
>> Unable to find the Ncurses libraries.
>> you must have Ncurses installed in order
>> to use 'make menuconfig'
make[1]: *** [ncurses] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux/scripts/lxdialog'
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2
( However following files have already been rpmed in RedHat 6.0 :
- ncurses-4.2-18.i386.rpm
- ncurses-devel-4.2-18.i386.rpm
- ncurses3-1.9.9e-9.i386.rpm )
Kindly advise how to proceed to find/install 'gcc' and the missing 'Ncurses'
Thanks in advance.
B.R.
Stephen
