./configure command Error while trying to install GCC compiler on unix machine
Hi,
I need to install the GCC compiler on a my Linus machine.
First step is to run the ./configure command and here we need to specify
./configure --target="target machine name (CPU type-Manufacturer-OS)
or other way would be just give the command ./configure and it guesses the target name from the file config.guess.
uname -a in my system gives
Linux 137.132.80.158 2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 #1 SMP Thu May 1 06:28:41 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
So I tried giving the format CPU type-Manufacturer-OS for my system as
i686-unknown-Linux
Also tried adding a new case in config.guess file to add my case ie for i686.
It keeps giving error "Invalid Configuration" if I directly give in the configure command or edit the config.guess file.
How do I give the rite values of CPU type-Manufacturer-OS ...Is there any command to find the values.Please let me know as Iam not able to proceed forward as configure command itself gives error.
Regards,
vijaya.

config.guess
CONFIG.GUESS(1) User Commands CONFIG.GUESS(1)
NAME
config.guess - guess the build system triplet
SYNOPSIS
config.guess [OPTION]
DESCRIPTION
The GNU build system distinguishes three types of machines, the `build' machine on which the compilers are run, the `host' machine on which
the package being built will run, and, exclusively when you build a compiler, assembler etc., the `target' machine, for which the compiler
being built will produce code.
This script will guess the type of the `build' machine.
Output the configuration name of the system `config.guess' is run on.
Operation modes:
-h, --help
print this help, then exit
-t, --time-stamp
print date of last modification, then exit
-v, --version
print version number, then exit
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
config.guess might need to compile and run C code, hence it needs a compiler for the `build' machine: use the environment variable
`CC_FOR_BUILD' to specify the compiler for the build machine. If `CC_FOR_BUILD' is not specified, `CC' will be used. Be sure to specify
`CC_FOR_BUILD' is `CC' is a cross-compiler to the `host' machine.
CC_FOR_BUILD a native C compiler, defaults to `cc'
CC a native C compiler, the previous variable is preferred
