Re: Installation help for Linux with no C compiler

google tells me it has a terminal package manager "synopkg" but that they
do not package gcc so they suggest to first install entware (
https://github.com/Entware/entware) on the NAS and then install gcc from
that repo with "opkg install gcc make"
