    Hi Im into the same as you I would recomend buying a QOOB pro chip or ViperGC (new version) install them, and then also buy Max Drive Pro from codejunkies.com the allowes for softmods but to get the best of both worlds you need both.
    I have Qoob Pro 1.3C BIOS
    Max Drive Pro Linux boot

    Im currently making a PS1/PSX emulatour for the Gamecube throug Linux.
    Then after that its OCing.

    Devkitppc IS the compiler. Coupled with msys which should have installed with the devkitppc setup, you should be able to open a cmd window, browse to a sample, and type make. The dol file will be generated. Visual Studio is only used for an SDK, and I would actually recommend getting programmer's notepad 2.

    Install the full devkitpro package, browse out to the gcn samples, and try compiling with the make command.
