Question, what do i use to do that?

[SG57]

Start cygwin...
Type in/copy-paste the first line in that box and hit enter
Type in/copy-paste the second line in that box and hit enter
etc.

So itll look like this:
svn co svn://svn.ps2dev.org/psp/trunk/psptoolchain
enter
cd psptoolchain
enter
chmod a+x ./toolchain.sh
enter
./toolchain.sh
enter

Thats it.

Dosn't work for me :S

Well i just did it and it works perfectly.

Your 'checking out' the toolchain from the subversion.
'cd' ing into the directory psptoolchain
making itexecutable with teh chmod a+x ./toolchain.sh
Then running it regular linux way. ./toolchain.sh

So your obviously doing something wrong or your Cygwin setup is wrong.

well it works for me, im following c++ lesson 1 at psp-programming, as far as i can tell im doing this part here

After that is finished, execute the updated script by typing "./toolchain.sh" and hitting enter. In Linux, "." means the current directory, and ".." means the parent directory, so this command means to execute "toolchain.sh," which is in the current directory. The toolchain.sh script will do the rest, for you. This can take up to several hours, depending on the specifications of your machine. For a frame of reference, my 3.0GHz Pentium 4 took about three hours to run the entire script, so be patient. Some people have reported it taking over 24 hours, but this is a little overkill. Go take a break and come back in a few hours. Or better yet, let it go while you sleep and when you wake up in the morning you should be ready for the next step.

cygwin looks to be downloading a 16mb bin utilities file from gnu.org, am i on the right track?

[SG57]

Yes u r. It should download binutils, newlib and something else I cant remember. Oh and there patches.

You need to install subversion in your cygwin environment to be able to use svn. It's not installed by default so you will have to run your setup.exe that you used to install cygwin with, when you get to the package selection window, hit the "view" button once, scroll down to subversion, and click where it says "Skip", then just next/ok your way along to the end of the installation.

[cyanide]

the toolchain downloads gcc, binutils and newlib. then it patches them.
then it intalls them... and thats what takes most of the time

[SSJGaz]

most of the time? im on a blindingly fast machine yet its been well over 12hours and its still going...

however i have noticed it seems 2 be doing the same thing over n over, is this right?
