Hi
Im just starting out with linux, but as i only have a 600mHz computer to install it onto, i am using Damn Small Linux (installed to HD).
I found that i need to do a 'make' command everytime i want to install a program, but it seems it does not exist in my system.
So i try to get the package via Synaptic, but it comes up with an error reading:

"Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"

If i try
from the console it says:
