Hm... I tried with another set of instructions to get a basic scrypt minerd on there and even it has issues with executables:
http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?topic=321.0./configure CFLAGS="-03"
checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether make supports nested variables... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no
checking for style of include used by make... GNU
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/usr/local/cpuminer':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details
I'm going to have to ask them for a refund in the morning. What a shame.
