Nothing.  It looks like you have not set up djgpp per instructions.  There should
be included a faq in fact a faq information in several formats.  They are unsipped
from faq230b.zip one in xxx.info and there is the same thing in txt and html.  It's
a pain but you have to get it all together.  Have you had a look at
ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/ there is all of the latest stuff.
Look for t he weekly faq from JD delorie I think he has a word or two about
starting.
