I am following this tutorial http://wiki.osdev.org/Porting_Newlib.
Everything is fine until I do this

make DESTDIR=${SYSROOT} install

Code: Select all

Why is it saying i686-pc-simpleos-ranlib: command not found? I can run this i686-pc-simpleos-ranlib anywhere without problems.

Make sure your i686 compiler is actually exported.
If it says not found, then it is not there.
Try replacing that with your actual path to it and see if that works out.

Hi, I have exported the path where i686-pc-simpleos-ranlib is in, and I tried running i686-pc-simpleos-ranlib anywhere, absolutely no problems.

I exported it by adding this line into ~/.profile
export PATH="$HOME/cross/bin:$PATH"

There you go. You probably did not export your path correctly.
Take a look at: http://askubuntu.com/questions/60218/ho ... to-my-path
Don't forget to add wanted binary name at the end of your path:

/home/yourUserName/opt/cross/bin/i386-elf-gcc (from my makefile, replace with your info)
