The root user doesn't need a .profile by default. Its home directory is the root. :) You can use pkgadd to install gcc.

You can download gcc for 2.5-8 (SPARC) or 2.6-8 (Intel) at http://www.sunfreeware.com/ and follow the directions provided with the tar file.

user root hasn't a .profile file but you can generate one and customize for your needs. do as follows log as root
the if you aren't yet # cd then execute # env > /.profile this redirect the output in a .profile file. edit it and delete every line but PATH, MANPATH, add your enviroment vars and export them as needed.
