Toolchain install suddenly hanging

27Bstroke6 · Post by **27Bstroke6** » Thu Oct 27, 2005 8:23 am

After having successfully installed the toolchain a number of times (under cygwin) -- always cleaning out the previous version before each new install -- I've been unable to get the most recent attempts to complete. In all cases, the build now hangs at "Configuring in opcodes" -- after:

"Checking for stdlib.h... (cached) yes
updating cache ./config.cache
configure: creating ./config.status

... that's it, hang city at that point. Before I go digging deep, any ideas? This was working fine originally, and there's plenty of disk space, memory, etc.

Thanks.

I have exactly the same problem. I don't know why it hangs.
I downloaded the psptoolchain-20051023.tar, but it just contains one file, that has no extension.
The last version I tried (september) contained a pspsdk directory with toolchain.sh. So I got the latest psptoolchain on svn and ran ./toolchain.sh, but I have the same problem as him now (hanging at configure: creating ./config.status).
By ending a sh.exe process, it continued, but crashed later:

Code: Select all

checking for stdlib.h... &#40;cached&#41; yes
checking for unistd.h... &#40;cached&#41; yes

If anyone could help us please, it would be very kind, thanks.

For what it's worth, I ultimately got this build to complete by going into the opcode directory and manually running configure in there (which completed OK) then going back out and re-running the main build. I have no idea why this should have made a difference.
