I spend like a day just to port newlib following this tutorial

https://wiki.osdev.org/Porting_Newlib

And It's pretty outdated, there's a lot of problem. And I was try to find more source on porting but I can't find anything. What should I do ?

It looks like you have to use an older version of autotools to compile newlib: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/239 ... -autotools
