Hi, Last night I installed ubuntu Linux 6.06. And about 10 minutes ago, after setting up gcc etc. I ran the toolchain script, it seemed to be running OK, but then I got:

Exported revision 1996.
creating cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1
checking target system type... mipsallegrexel-psp-elf
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether ln works... yes
checking whether ln -s works... yes
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.
ERROR CONFIGURING BINUTILS
frozenoverflow@GENESIS:~/psptoolchain$

Can anybody please tell me what is causing this, and how would I go around fixing this problem.

Thank you for reading this post.

It's definatly a problem with gcc. I geuss you could try to install a gcc package and thren try again.

Where abouts do you recommend I get it from? I installed it from the ubuntu add/remove program.

oh thats weird. I never used ubuntu but i geuss you can search in that program did you try to search for gcc and just install everything that it comes up with?

**FrozenOverflow** · 09-09-2006, 04:48 AM
