compiling u-boot for AM335x => /bin/bash: arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc: command not fou

Hello,

I will preface this with the fact I am a newbie. I am currently running Ubuntu 12.0.4 on a 64 bit machine.

I have an AM335X development board. Along with the kit came the compressed kernel (linux 3,2), rootfs, u-boot, and ARM cross compiler (arm-2010q1).

I uncompressed everything to a sub folder => /home/brent/work

I have added the following to my .bashrc file:

PATH=/home/brent/work/arm-2010q1/bin:$PATH
CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-

I have also installed the following:
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

When I go to built u-boot I am doing the following (per instructions that came with the kit):
1. brent@brent~/work/u-boot$ sudo make distclean

awk '(NF && $1 !~ /^#/) { print $1 ": " $1 "_config; $(MAKE)" }' boards.cfg > .boards.depend

2. brent@brent~/work/u-boot$ sudo make myd_am335x_lcd4.3_config

awk '(NF && $1 !~ /^#/) { print $1 ": " $1 "_config; $(MAKE)" }' boards.cfg > .boards.depend
C onfiguring for myd_am335x_lcd4.3 - Board: myd_am335x, Options: DISPLAY_LCD43

3. brent@brent~/work/u-boot$ sudo make

I have verified the binary is located at /home/brent/work/arm-2010q1/bin

I also do not understand why I need sudo. If I do not I get a permission error.

Any help or information on what I am doing wrong would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe this will help

Thanks for the response. I had seen this thread before. I did verify I had both

arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc and arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc.4.4.1 in my bin directory.

I had added the location to the bin folder in my PATH in the bash.rc file.

I did see one difference in that I did not have the entire path to the bin directory in the .bashrc for the CROSS_COMPILE variable. I have added that.

Unfortunately I still get the same error.

I uncompressed my the cross compiler at /home/brent/work/arm-2010q1. I see in the TI thread it was in /opt.

Would this make a difference?

Any other ideas?

Thanks again

thank you again for your help.

my issue was the permissions on the folders.

having to use sudo to do the make should have been a big clue to me.

once I changed the permissions, i am able to build
