[ECOS] Building a Toolchain

["Ramapriya Rangachar" <ramapriya1 at hotmail dot com>]

HI All

I'm not sure if this question is within the scope of this list ....
But, I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction ...

I need to build a cross-toolchain for the ARM.
The host is Cygwin + Win2K.

I've tried using:
       binutils-20011002-1-src.tar.bz2
       gcc-2.95.3-5-src.tar.bz2
       insight-5.1.1.tar.gz
which I downloaded using the Cygwin setup program.

binutils and Insight build without a problem. But GCC does not build.

Here is a snippet of the build output:
________________________________________________________________________if [ 
-f lang-f77 ]; then \
  gcc -DCROSS_COMPILE -DIN_GCC     -g -O2  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -o g77.exe gcc.o 
g77
spec.o g77version.o \
   version.o prefix.o intl.o  obstack.o       -ladvapi32 
../libiberty/libiberty.
a; \
else true; fi
if [ -f lang-f77 ]; then \
  rm -f g77-cross.exe; \
  cp g77.exe g77-cross.exe; \
else true; fi
makeinfo   -I/usr/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.3-5/gcc -o cpp.info 
/usr/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.3-5
/gcc/cpp.texi
makeinfo: not found
make[1]: *** [cpp.info] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/build/gcc/gcc'
make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2
make: Leaving directory `/tmp/build/gcc'
________________________________________________________________________

Do I need a patch ???? I have a feeling I do ... not sure where to find it 
though.

I tried gcc-2.95.2.tar.bz2 and gcc-2.95.2-diff-991022 from Handhelds.org.
But the patch does not seem to apply ....

Any help is greatly appreciated.


Thanks
Ram
