I tried to build the toolchain from the instructions in the manual.
Couldn't build gdb:
[r...@localhost src]# rm -rf gdb-5.1.1
[r...@localhost src]# tar --bzip2 -xf gdb-5.1.1.tar.bz2
[r...@localhost src]# cp -r gdb/gdb-5.1.1/ gdb-5.1.1/
make sure that the source directory realy contains the mspgcc files. i
suspect that this isnt copying anything.
[r...@localhost src]# cd gdb-5.1.1
[r...@localhost gdb-5.1.1]# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/msp430
--target=msp430
Configuring for a i686-pc-linux-gnu host.
Invalid configuration `msp430': machine `msp430' not recognized
Unrecognized target system name msp430.
that means that copying the files did not work..
Tried with gdb-6.0 as per mikrocontroller.net instructions. Configure
succeeded, make failed (for some reason, make invokes configure).
dont use the gdb/Makefile.in in gdb-current, just delete it after doing
the CVS checkout, before copying the files over the gdb source tree.
...
Is there an IRC channel for mspgcc users?
#msp430 on freenode.net, but its not very populated most of the time...
