Help with Cygwin!!! SOLVED

(1/1)

froggyman:
OK, so I followed the Cygwin instalwtih screen shots( http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CygwinInstallWithScreenShots) but when i selected archive, where you select the packages, the ones listed on the guide werent there when i was suppose to check them, all there was was a n/a symbol and no box to check.
I was using the goh4.com mirror and was using it with the -X command.

So i installed cygwin anyways thinking it might work anyways and did the same with rockbox's mirror.

So, after installing i followed the simpleguide to compiliing guide, and everything was going ok until i got to the make command and then i got this :

*then it start me out at a new line using the directory i had previously entered*
what did i do wrong, and what can i do to fix it?

saratoga:
You don't have the compiler installed.  You can either rerun the cygwin setup, this time taking care to install it, or you can run the rockboxdev.sh script as described in the linux install section to build the compiler yourself.

froggyman:
ok, i ran cygwin setup.exe again and when the guide says to check the things under archive, deval,interpreters and text there is no box to check for the things just a lot of n/a signs.

EDIT: after playing with it for a while i figured out they are automaticly on skip, and that i need to just click on them to get the boxes!  ;D
