    sparc-sun-sunos4.1-x-mips-lsi-elf.tar.Z

Source releases:
    src.tar.Z

Other files:
    README (this file)
    doc.zip
    infozip.exe
    unzip.exe

Instructions for installing these releases are described below.


Installing the Win32 Release from a zip Archive
-----------------------------------------------
Create a temporary directory, TMPDIR,  for storing the zip archives
and do the following to install the release:

    mkdir C:\CYGNUS (or some other location of your choosing)
    C:
    cd CYGNUS
    unzip \TMPDIR\ZIPFILE.zip

where "ZIPFILE.zip" is the zip archive you wish to install.  The zip
archive can be extracted with many freely available "unzip" utlities.
There are currently some problems using PKUNZIP due to the directory
structure and long filenames used.  We've included the Info-ZIP tools
in the event that you do not have a non-PKUNZIP tool.  Please read
"Installing the Info-ZIP Tools" below for installation instructions.

Assuming the release is installed in C:\CYGNUS, you must set
 GCC_EXEC_PREFIX to:
    C:\CYGNUS\RELEASE\H-i386-cygwin32\lib\gcc-lib\

and add the following to your PATH:
    C:\CYGNUS\RELEASE\H-i386-cygwin32\bin

Where "RELEASE" is the release installed.

The trailing "\" in GCC_EXEC_PREFIX is necessary.


Installing the UNIX Binary Release from a Tarball
-------------------------------------------------
Create a temporary directory for storing the tarballs, extracting the
Install script and storing any output logs.  For thie binary release
archive perform the following steps:

    uncompress < TARBALL | tar xpf - Install
    ./Install --tape=TARBALL --installdir=INSTALLDIR binaries

Where "TARBALL" is the name of the binary archive and "INSTALLDIR" is
the location you wish to install the binaries.  If you plan to install
in /usr/cygnus, you may omit the --installdir option.


Installing the Source Tarball on a UNIX System
-----------------------------------------------
Change to the directory where you would like to store the source and run:

    uncompress < src.tar.Z | tar xpf -

This will create a "src" subdirectory containing all the sources used to
build this release.


Installing the Documentation zip File on UNIX
---------------------------------------------
Change to the directory where you would like to store the documentation
and run:

    unzip /path/to/cdrom/doc.tar.Z | tar xpf -

This will create a "doc" subdirectory containing all the documentation
in HTML format.


Installing the Documentation zip File on Windows
------------------------------------------------
Change to the directory where you would like to store the documentation
and run:

    unzip D:\doc.zip

where "D:" is the drive letter corresponding to your CDROM drive.
This will create a "doc" subdirectory containing all the documentation
in HTML format.


Installing the Info-ZIP Tools
----------------------------
We have provided both the entire Info-ZIP suite of tools and the unzip
utility along with the Cygnus release.  The file "infozip.exe" is a
self-extracting archive which will create a subdirectory named "infozip"
containing the tools and documentation.  There is also "unzip.exe" which is
the unzip program in those tools.  We recommend you download the entire tool
suite and read the documentation before using the tools.  These tools are
freeware.  For more information on the Info-ZIP project, go to:

The Fine Print
--------------

This ftp'able archive will be deleted when you have received your official
