+Installing egcs-1.0
+
+This document describes the generic installation procedure for egcs as
+well as detailing some target specific installation instructions for egcs.
+
+egcs includes several components that previously were separate distributions
+with their own installation instructions.  This document supercedes all 
+package specific installation instructions.  We provide the component specific
+installation information in the source distribution for historical reference
+purposes only.
+
+We recommend you read the entire generic installation instructions as
+well as any target specific installation instructions before you proceed
+to configure, build, test and install egcs.
+
+If something goes wrong in the configure, build, test or install
+procedures, first double check that you followed the generic and target
+specific installation instructions carefully.  Then check the EGCS FAQ
+(FAQ) to see if your problem is covered before you file a bug report.
+
+The installation procedure is broken into four steps.
+
+
+  Configure		see CONFIGURE
+  Build			see BUILD
+  Test			see TEST
+  Final Install		see FINALINSTALL
+
+
+Before starting the build/install procedure please browse the 
+host/target specific installation notes (SPECIFIC).
