        "/i686-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: final link failed: No space left on device" means your hard drive is full.

        You don't have everything built.

        To build your application statically, use your static version of Qt

          Yes, I see. Thank you!

          I deleted Qt. I am trying to install it now. May I ignore this errors?

                                It was building on my old computer with XP successfully! It took 1 or 1.5 hour.

                                Please say me. Should I run this command: mingw32-make install

                                        I created the new folder with name C:/Qt5.1.1_static

                                        And copied to it the content of the folder C:\Qt\Qt5.1.1_static\5.1.1\Src\qtbase

                                        I ran this: cd C:/Qt5.1.1_static

                                        And this: configure -static -opengl desktop -nomake examples -nomake tests

                                        And I ran this: mingw32-make

                                        And this: mingw32-make install

                                        I open QtCreator -> and selected qmake.exe from C:/Qt5.1.1_static

                                        I created a simple Dialog Project (Release)

                                        But my Application-exe require the libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll

                                          This is right for installing:

                                          configure -static -prefix "C:/Qt/Qt5.1.1_static" -opengl desktop -nomake examples -nomake tests

                                          But my Application-exe require the libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll How to build all dll's to one exe-file?
