Seg Faults...

Working on the codes for the Pioneer remote, I need to install a compiler on my empeg. Using hyperterm and zmodem, I successfully loaded binutils, then tried to upload gcc. I'm repeatedly getting the error below. Any help on why?
Thanks,
Douglas

Your copy of rz (the zmodem transfer program) appears to be going bang. Have you run out of disk space -- there's only about 16Mb available in the root. Which is not enough space to install gcc.

Personally, I'd just invest a couple of hundred in a new desktop box, and install Linux on that. Oh, wait, I did.



Roger - not necessarily speaking for empeg

I installed Frank's debian environment by basically unzipping it into a new directory I made under /drive0. I then copied rz and sz from the empeg install into the same place on Frank's install. Then I changed to the usr/sbin directory in Frank's install and ran chroot. In my case like this:-

./chroot /drive0/debian/root /bin/bash

Then I downloaded the ARM GCC binaries from here, rz'd them to my empeg and used dpkg to install them. You will also need CPP from the interpreters directory to get GCC to install.
You may need Libc6 as well to get your programs to compile. Again I downloaded it, rz'd it and installed it using dpkg. There are couple of sample programs on the developer site I compiled as a test after this and it all worked!

To edit my files on the empeg I managed to install an editor called FTE which does some nice colour codeing when editing C files. So far I have only written very small stuff but I have managed to write to the display and read from the IR device.

I hope this helps you in some small way.

You shouldn't use rz/sz in a chrooted environment. I can't get it to work anyway...
