That is your problem: you used one of those oh-so-smart unzip programs
that unpack each zip file into its own directory.  DJGPP cannot work
that way, its seamless integration between the various programs and
files depends on the unified directory structure that needs to be
preserved when unzipping.

The best solution to your problem that I can suggest involves 3 steps:

  1) Delete all the subdirectories under the C:\DJGPP directory, but
     make sure you keep the original *.zip files.

  2) Download the program unzip32.exe from the same site where you get
     DJGPP.

  3) Unzip all the *.zip files again using unzip32.exe, like this:

	   unzip32 djdev202.zip
	   unzip32 gcc2952b.zip

     etc., you get the idea.  These commands should be typed from the
     command line in a DOS box, after you change to the C:\DJGPP
     directory.
