Desparately Seeking EZ2LOAD / gcc help!

[Mark D. Hamill]

Help!

I have an OS/2 machine and I can't load the OS/2 version of GNAT on it
(installation fails about 95% through).  So I've tried the EZ2LOAD
Version 3.07.  EVERY file I compile generates the following baffling
error (even if it compiles file in my old Ada 83 compiler)

RAISED STORAGE_ERROR

This same program compiles file using GNAT 3.09 for Windows 95 at work. 
It must be something about my environment GNAT doesn't like ... what
could it be?  I'm running the GNAT307 batch file to set up the
environment first.  I've even used the OS/2 "Dual Boot" feature to boot
up into a DOS environment, and the same problem persists.

This will help me pass my Software Construction course without
destroying my machine in the process.  Thanks.  I'll check here, but I'd
also prefer an E-mail reply since I'm under deadline.

You definitely cannot expect the DOS version to run successfully under
OS/2, at least I have never succeeded when I tried this. Most likely
the Storage_Error comes from not having the storage allocatoin attributes
of the DOS window set right, but I don't think you will get very far.

Of course no one can help on your OS/2 installation without more information
("fails" is not a description of what happened!)
