Tutorial problam

Post by Amitj »

i googled ps2dev ftp and found an oopo's tutorial. url: http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/ps2dev-on-unix.txt
the problam is that in the tutorial it said -
You will also need some software patches. Three of these contain added
support for the internals of the PS2, specifically for the EE, as well
one adding support for newer versions of binutils and gcc to ps2lib.

* binutils-2.13.2.1-EE.patch:
- http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/bi ... 1-EE.patch

* binutils-2.9.1-IOP.patch:
- http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/bi ... -IOP.patch

* gcc-3.2.2-EE.patch:
- http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/gcc-3.2.2-EE.patch

* gcc-2.8.1-IOP.patch:
- http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/gc ... -IOP.patch

* newlib-1.10.0-EE.patch:
- http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/ne ... 0-EE.patch

* ps2lib-2.0-NEWGCC.patch:
- http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/ps ... WGCC.patch
but when i tried downloading the patch i got to an error page.

You should use the "autobuild" script, also available at oopo website :
http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/ne ... 060222.tgz

It will download/patch all the necessary stuff, and will ease your life ;)


btw, thanks again oopo for your work on this :)

I especially like reading this part at the top of that tutorial:
*************
** WARNING **
*************

This guide is now obsolete and shouldn't be used. Instead, you should
grab the autobuild script from my site (http://www.oopo.net/consoledev)
and use that for your building needs. This guide remains as it explains
the process of building a cross-compiling toolchain and can thus be
interesting to the curious. That is all.
Yessir, that's good reading!

I tried the autobuild script and tried this:
./toolchain.pl PS2
but an error coming back:
bad interperter: no such file or directory
what to do?

Install perl to run a perl script.

Or run the non-experimental shell-script based version instead.

Or if you have perl installed somewhere that isn't /usr you'll need to edit the script.
