Hello Again Taylor, Once more, much obliged for the instructions. I complete all the steps on the x86 host system without error. However, when I scp the mit-scheme directory over to the odroid and run cd microcode && ./configure, i get the error "checking for native-code support... configure: error: unable to determine host architecture". I have to assume that putting the --enable-native-code=svm1-32le on this command couldn't hurt, so I tried that. it seems to have gotten rid of the architecture error.
Once on the "make -j4 cross-target" step in the microcode directory, I get this error message "make: *** No rule to make target 'cross-target'. Stop.". The only way to get the make to move forward is to remove the "cross-target" argument. When I enter make -j4, it compiles. Likewise, "env FAST=y make check" returns a "make: *** No rule to make target 'check'. Stop." error. Finally, I tried to run the sudo make install command back in the src directory just as a shot in the dark. It returned the error below... /bin/sh ./microcode/mkinstalldirs /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-svm1-32le-10.90 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./etc/optiondb.scm /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-svm1-32le-10.90/. /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./etc/plugins.scm /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-svm1-32le-10.90/. /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 lib/*.com /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-svm1-32le-10.90/. /usr/bin/install: cannot stat 'lib/*.com': No such file or directory make: *** [Makefile:881: install-auxdir-top] Error 1 This error I have seen quite a few times when trying this process on my own. It at least seemed to happen either when I attempted the install process multiple times or attempted the compile process multiple times. To get it to go away, I would have to delete the mit-scheme directory and re-extract the tar file so I could build in a clean directory again. I'm not sure why this is the case. I also have tried creating empty junk files in the required directories; such as hack.com in the lib directory just to get by this check. However that method never gets me far. Also, at your recommendation I am happy to say I have purchased a odroid C4! I'm actually using the xu4 for a physical design which frankly works much better with the placements of the ports on the xu4. While I like the stats of the C4, it will be a bit awkward to change the design around all the usb/ethernet ports at one end of the system. Either way, looking forward to tinkering with it! Thank you for your time. -kit On Fri, May 1, 2020 at 6:28 AM Taylor R Campbell <campb...@mumble.net> wrote: > > Date: Fri, 1 May 2020 00:36:17 -0400 > > From: James Flaherty <kitcat425....@gmail.com> > > > > When I input > > ./configure --enable-cross-compiling --enable-native-code=svm1-32le > > > > The configure fails at step "checking for native-code support" with the > > error "configure: error: unknown compiler architecture: svm1-32le".
