its nice to be back, just finish installing other linux where to try ROCK linux. the old distro is ubuntu but lots of bugs so have to switch other distro.extracting rock-scr-2.0.3.tar.bz2 was fine
then on ./scripts/Config tyhis is the message:

[ammc@localhost rock-src-2.0.3]$ ./scripts/Config
Creating rockdialog tool ...
gcc misc/rockdialog/*.c -Imisc/rockdialog -lncurses -o src/rockdialog.bin
./scripts/Config: line 1: gcc: command not found
mv: cannot stat `src/rockdialog.bin.3901': No such file or directory
Creating configuration script ...
Running ROCK Linux 2.0.3 configuration ...
unknown returncode: 127
is this another gawk and curl.

gcc, ncurses-dev, glibc-dev, binutils and a handful others that I can't remember by heart right now.
This is evidenced by this line:
