2009-03-31 16:30:05     uclinux-dist error message

Trying to build the uclinux-dist.

Getting PATH error messages: "bfin-uclinux-gcc: command not found: perhaps you need to fix your PATH?"

The toolchain is loaded such that it exists here: ~/blackfin-sources/build

So I enter the command:

export PATH=$PATH:~/blackfin-sources/build/bfin-uclinux/bin:~/blackfin-sources/build/bfin-linux-uclibc/bin

(also edited the ~/.bashrc file to do automatically)

Check the PATH with: which -a bfin-linux-uclibc-gcc

and nothing comes back.

I'm logged in as root.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

you should not be doing anything as root.  if `which bfin-linux-uclibc-gcc` says it cant find the compiler, then either your install of the toolchain is broken or your PATH is broken.  verify the paths you're actually using are correct.

OK, I'll switch to a user.  Question is:  what is the login? Using colinux. It "autogenerates" two passwords: one for the root and one for uclinux.  Do you know the login for uclinux? (I just guessed root-root to get into the root)

Once I login non-root, should the PATH commands I used in the earlier posting work?  I have confirmed that the compiler is at the location I include in the command.

thanks.

Jim:

If you downloaded/built things as root - before you can fix things - you need to do a make clean, and then change all the directory permissions so you can built it as a normal user - otherwise it still will not work.

OK.  I'm able to login as uclinux now.

How do I remake (clean) the toolchain?

the documentation looks pretty straight forward to me ...

simply delete everything you did as root (source/compiled/etc...) and restart from scratch as non-root

Yes, It definitely is.  For some reason my brain didn't recognize "uclinux" as the username.

Thanks.

Seems like the safest thing to do.  Thanks.
