Re: Newbie ISO questions

More info:  after booting from the 6.0.3 minimal-desktop-live ISO, I
downloaded the sources to ~root and tried to build.  Here's what
happened:
bash-3.1# ./scripts/Config -cfg system
Creating confdialog tool.
gcc misc/confdialog/*.c -Imisc/confdialog -lncurses -o src/confdialog.bin
In file included from misc/confdialog/checklist.c:41:
misc/confdialog/dialog.h:39:23: error: sys/types.h: No such file or directory

                from misc/confdialog/dialog.h:40,

                from misc/confdialog/checklist.c:41:
/usr/include/fcntl.h:73: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__'
before 'extern'

And so on for several thousand more lines.  Any ideas?
