From scratch:

1) Download and unpack DJGPP

2) Download and unpack the Make utility

3) Download and unpack Allegro

4) Go to the Allegro directory and type 'make'. It shouldn't need any 
parameters - everything it needs to know is in the makefile. And it 
should be obvious that something's happening... the screen should fill 
with filenames, and eventually it should say that it's done.

If you're using DJGPP v2.01, you'll need to modify the file bank.s before 
it will compile properly.
