Support #928
Updated by Daniel Curtis about 6 years ago
This is a guide for setting up a cross-compiling environment for ARM on Arch Linux h2. Prepare the Environment * Make sure the system is up to date: <pre> pacman -Syu </pre> * Install git and base-devel: <pre> pacman -S base-devel git </pre> h2. Install Raspberry Pi Toolchain * Clone the toolchain repo (using @--depth 1@ will decrease the overall download size by 400MB): repo: <pre> mkdir ~/git && cd ~/git git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/raspberrypi/tools.git </pre> * Add the tools to your path: <pre> echo 'export PATH=$PATH:~/git/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin' >> ~/.bash_profile </pre> * Source the @.bash_profile@: .bash_profile: <pre> source ~/.bash_profile </pre> * Check the ARM gcc version: arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -v #* _Example output:_ <pre> Using built-in specs.
