Last night I broke down and upgraded to GCC 2.2.2d and 0.97cpl2.
Pretty much everything went as planned, I was missing one file
zcat, and I saw that it was on the 0.97 root diskette, and since
I was still using 0.95 root, I figured it was time to update :D

BTW - I was very impressed with the root-disk  and GCC 2.2.2d 
      install programs, very nice!  I couldn't believe how 
      much the root disk has changed.

I also got the kernel source, both patches, added my Video 7
hack, and 100x60  default mode, all without problems.  

Now for the problems....

du doesn't work, it says I'm using 200 meg on a 64 meg partition,
I assume there's a newer version or something, I know that a lot
has changed since 0.96, do I need to get all new binaries???

find also doesn't work like it used to, on all the Un*ces I've
used to find a file:


but now it looks like I need to say


or something like that.

Lastly(for now anyway) the root install program changed my
group file, the bin group is now called obsolete, there was
no bin group.  This one really puzzled me, since the GCC
install script tried to chgrp to bin, and it looked like
there was no bin in 0.97....

Many Thanx to all.....
