Cygwin: Yet another compiling problem

(1/3) > >>

aaron424:
While attempting to use Cygwin to patch rockbox, when I "type make to create make file" (following instructions from the simpleguidetocompiling)
Cygwin displays:
/bin/sh: arm-elf-gcc: command not found
/bin/sh: arm-elf-gcc: command not found
/bin/sh: arm-elf-gcc: command not found
/bin/sh: arm-elf-gcc: command not found

Over and over again. Can anyone help?

froggyman:
Did you make sure to install all of the correct packages by clicking on them in the installation setup, because it sounds like you dont have all of the packages installed.

aaron424:
man, so I have to reinstall everything?

cool_walking_:
As well as being installed, they need to be in your $PATH.

To permanently do that, type the following command in Cygwin:

--- Code: ---echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/opt/arm/bin' >> ~/.profile
--- End code ---
Note: those are single-quotes, not backticks.

Then to apply that, either restart Cygwin, or type:

--- Code: ---source ~/.profile
--- End code ---

EDIT: No, you don't need to reinstall, just make sure you have actually installed the cross-compilers as specified in the instructions. Step 3 here.

aaron424:
How do I uninstall it? I wish to start over but it doesn't show up in windows add or remove programs.
