Hi,

I try to build the �Newlib toolchain (or1k-elf)� in cygwin.

After downloading from git, mkdir bld-or1k-src, mkdir bld-or1k-gcc, exporting PATH, access to /opt/or1k-toolchain, running configure, I get an error at the �end� of make:

Is there anybody who can help me ?

Sorry if this has already been discussed, but it is hard to search in the forum's database.

Thanks for your help in advance,

Cheers, Tobias

I don't think anyone have successfully built the or1k-elf toolchain under cygwin,
you might even be the first one trying, so I'm afraid you are a bit on your own there :(
It might be easier to just setup a virtual machine with Linux if all you want is to get a working toolchain on a windows machine, but if you really want to get the cygwin build going, please keep us posted with any progress you are making.
I can try to help out, but I don't have a setup to test on, so we'd really need a bit of digging from your side as well then.
