+Installing egcs-1.0
+
+This document describes the generic installation procedure for egcs as
+well as detailing some target specific installation instructions for egcs.
+
+egcs includes several components that previously were separate distributions
+with their own installation instructions. This document supercedes all
+package specific installation instructions. We provide the component specific
+installation information in the source distribution for historical reference
+purposes only.
+
+We recommend you read the entire generic installation instructions as
+well as any target specific installation instructions before you proceed
+to configure, build, test and install egcs.
+
+If something goes wrong in the configure, build, test or install
+procedures, first double check that you followed the generic and target
+specific installation instructions carefully. Then check the EGCS FAQ
+(FAQ) to see if your problem is covered before you file a bug report.
+
+The installation procedure is broken into four steps.
+
+
+ Configure see CONFIGURE
+ Build see BUILD
+ Test see TEST
+ Final Install see FINALINSTALL
+
+
+Before starting the build/install procedure please browse the
+host/target specific installation notes (SPECIFIC).
