i686-elf command line tools aren't building on Ubuntu 22.04?

Post by Kaius »

Hello.

I'm just beginning to get into OS development, but I'm an experienced programmer and am also quite experienced with Linux. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04, but I'm having trouble installing the i686-elf toolchain that osdev.org wants. I've scoured the internet, but to no avail. Does anybody here use Ubuntu 22.04, and if so, would you please explain to me how you built this toolchain on your system?
