i know that compiler == gcc but which location i need to add?
I am not sure i know how to add it. sorry for my gap in knowledge.

at first, i tried below location without success:

$which gcc
/usr/bin/gcc
$ export CONFIG_PATH=/usr/bin/gcc

but the gcc mentioned in the error is "arm-eabi-gcc" which is think is
different so this explains why it did not work.

also tried with other locations i can think:
$export CONFIG_PATH=/home/max/arm-eabi-4.6/bin/arm-eabi-gcc
$export CONFIG_PATH=/home/max/arm-eabi-4.6/bin/

those didn't help too.

if that helps, the currnet path:

$ echo $PATH
/home/max/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-eabi-4.6/bin:/usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games

thank you for your help!
