Rockbox Development > Starting Development and Compiling
Installing the MIPS compiler (was: Ingenic Jz4740/Jz4732 players)

I really do not understand what I'm doing wrong.
I follewed these instructions to to the tee http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CygwinDevelopment
Which included running the setup a second time using the -X option
This is what i get when I try to compile
Dam Mediafire.( Picture not showing at time of this post)
The error message says mipsel-elf-gcc: Command not found
Next error is mipsel-elf-ld: Command not found
Once in the build folder I typed this during my second try
export PATH=/usr/local/arm-elf/bin:$PATH
I know you posted the it allready compiled, but I think you must have chossen normal build instaed of bootloader build.
I guess I'm asking when you boot rockbox from sd card the screen should come on and we should beable to see what rockbox will look like? Every time I try your complied version and use the new usbtool 10 rockbox.bin the competer gives results saying done.
But the player screen remains blank and nothing happens.
I'f you don't mind can you point me in the right direction or recomplie it using bootloader instead of normal. Thanks in advance 8)
Ok I have Ubuntu on a serprate drive. I booted to that then folled these instructions to the tee

All said and done i still get that dam mipsel-elf-gcc error.
I feel the need to tell you this is driving me crazy.I want to learn about it and help out. Although If I cannot even see a glimpse of it working what's the point. I googled and cannot find no file called mipsel-elf-gcc do you have a copy of it.

Please don't ask for tech support in the New Ports forum. We even have a sticky saying not to do it.

These mean you either didn't install the compiler, or installed it but did not add it to your path.

arm-elf is the compiler for arm targets, not mips targets. Did you install the mips compiler? If so, you should add the path to the mips compiler here.
If not, go back to the beginning, and this time install the mips compiler.

I uploaded a bootloader here, but you really should try getting the Development environment to work.

Sorry about that. I followed the link from wiki. Although I now know and am sorry.
I did install the mips complier. What would the path look like?

Thank you. Also I plan to, this is a lot of info to take in a short period of time. I have learned more in the past two days than I have the last six months.
I appreciate your patience with me.

Well, the obvious place to look would be /usr/local/mipsel-elf/bin. If the missing items are located there, then add this directory to your path.
