Post by: CrashinTime on December 05, 2019, 08:47:04 PM

first time compiler here, tring to install arm-elf (windows 10 via cygwin) but every time I try I get an error (first error being a \r error thats fixed by file UNIX conversion)
When running the rockboxdev.sh it launches the prompt and is select a to install arm fut it keeps returning

]: *** [Makefile:71: fixfixes.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory '/tmp/rbdev-build/build-gcc/fixincludes'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:4279: all-fixincludes] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/rbdev-build/build-gcc'
make: *** [Makefile:748: all] Error 2

when its done downloading, any help would be appreciated, many thanks

I'm not sure cygwin still works, we started discouraging it ten years ago. Since you're in windows 10, you can build the compilee directly using the MS Unix tools: https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/Windows10CrossCompiler
