Install 3.0 wth VMware with Tools & GCC

[Guest]

Ok I have spend the day trying to get VMware tools to install, had some luck VMware now show's that tools are installed and current but unable to shutdown or reboot. I have not installed GCC and can't seem to get it install or find it.

What I have done so far.

Downloaded from http ://sourceforge.net/projects/efw/

EFW-COMMUNITY-3.0.5-beta1-devel-201504071248.iso
EFW-COMMUNITY-3.0.5-beta1-devel-201504071601-SRPMS.tar.gz

Copied VMwareTools-9.4.11-2400950.tar.gz from VM Tools install

Installed from ISO, extracted RPM's from EFW-COMMUNITY-3.0.5-beta1-devel-201504071601-SRPMS.tar.gz

used rpm -ivh *.* on the SRPMS directory. Everything installed no errors

ran ./VMware-install.pl from VMware-tools-distrib directory

Install works always but can't locate the GCC path.

So where is GCC located?

How do I get GCC installed?

I am no Linux guy so please be gentle

You could try below:
1. whereis gcc
2. which gcc
3. locate gcc
4. rpm -ql  gcc

if non of the above works means you have to install gcc package

best of luck
