One of the most aggravating errors I encountered while setting up a minimal Linux install was the C compiler cannot create executables from the configure command.

I solved this by installing the kernel-headers and glibc-devel packages with the Red Hat Package Manager, RPM.

A similar issue arises when attempting to install the GNU CCC (C Compiler Collection), GNU binutils are required to get anything done after installing GCC. I wish the installer would check for this; it checks for many other things.
