Title: Problems With Zgcc
Post by: Fraggy on January 24, 2005, 11:32:59 am

Can anybody help me out?

I'm trying to install the "ZGCC GNU Compiler Suite Release 2.02" on my Zaurus.
(http://s91215199.onlinehome.us/zaurus/)

Configuration instructions are here: http://s91215199.onlinehome.us/zaurus/zgcc2install.html (http://s91215199.onlinehome.us/zaurus/zgcc2install.html)

But I get stuck on the part where I have to configure the compiler

I have to run "source zgcc.sh" as root, but root doesn't recognize the command "source"...

Any suggestions?

Are you using root during the installaton?

To me it looks like this command should run the shell-script zgcc.sh. If this is true, you could try

Code: [Select]

sh zgcc.sh

In bash source can also be done wth the . command. So you want to type

Code: [Select]

. zgcc.sh
If that still gives you erros then you are most probably not running bash but ash.
Try running

Code: [Select]

bash at the prompt as root, then try source or . again

Freizugheit: yes I was running the installation as root.

Stu: Indeed both methods do the job, thanks!

I still haven't gotten the compiler to run, 'cause now I got a misconfiguration in the compiler config, but the source command works again!
