Looks like you do not have permissions on the install directories, you either need to run the toolchain.pl file as root or create the directories /usr/local/ps2dev and/or /usr/local/pspdev and set them to be owned by your normal user with full read/write/execute permissions for user.

It is telling you that your path is set incorrectly. There's two usual reasons for this:

1) You didn't set the path as stated in the readme.

2) You're running ubuntu and using sudo to run the script.

As sudo is compiled to contain a hardcoded path it will ignore any custom path you have set. The only solution for that is to create the directory manually, change it to be owned by your normal user account and rerun the script as non-root.

Code: Select all

sudo mkdir /usr/local/pspdev
sudo chown jordan&#58;jordan /usr/local/pspdev
./toolchain.pl PSP

Enjoy.

A temporary way to become root (without having to set a root password) in Ubuntu:

"sudo su"

You can then set your paths (for root user) and run the toolchain script...
