could anyone help me out

and you will have issues
2.7 is ANTIQUE

it dates to the 1995 and the old 386 CPU


think of trying to install 16 bit windows 95 software on 64 bit windows 10

Script for installation (first install the current version of gcc using your package manager)
http://github.com/sdenel/How-to-inst...impleScalar.sh

Thanks for response guys,
But I have one doubt
Is latest gcc version work fine with simplescalar??

the current testing is gcc 6
with gcc 4.8 as the long life stable

gcc 2.7 is from 1995/1996
TWENTY TWO YEARS AGO!!!!!

The instructions I pointed you to are dated November 2016, so they should be fine. The obvious solution is to try it and see what happens...

why are you trying to use the EVEN OLDER gcc 2.6
that is older than gcc 2.7 you used in the first post

I too am baffled. If you have Ubuntu 16.04, then the gcc available is 5.3.1. A quick check shows that your gcc dates from 1994. Where did you find it? Ubuntu didn't even exist then!
