From the latest version of the DJGPP FAQ list:

6.14  Q: When I run the Info browser, it tells me it cannot find the node
         "Top".
      A: Check your installation of info files.  The file DJGPP.ENV in the
         root of your DJGPP installation mentions the variable INFOPATH
         which should point to the directory where Info looks for its
         files.  It must find there a file named ``dir'' and other files
         with .iNN extension, where NN is a number.

         Assuming the above checks OK, and all the necessary info files
         are indeed installed in those directories (did you remember to
         give that -d switch to PKUNZIP?), it might be that some of the
         files were edited with a DOS-based editor, which converted the
         Newline characters to the CR/LF pairs.  The DOS port of Info
         doesn't like this, because this invalidates the tag tables
         included with the files, which Info uses to quickly find the
         various nodes.

         To work around this, run DTOU.EXE on the offending files, it will
         strip the extra CR characters to make Info happy.  DTOU is in
         your bin/ subdirectory of the main DJGPP directory.

It pays to read the docs sometimes, right?  You can get the latest
version of the FAQ as faqNNN.zip at the same site you've got DJGPP.
