[Altera_Forum]

Hello All,  

 after nearly a month trying to compile the toolchain required to start writing some apps, I am just giving up on the whole thing  Can someone point me to where I can find the lates binary toolchain?  on the install nios II linux on altera wiki, it tells me to download the 20100621 tarball but it says that if i have problems compiling the toolchain I should download the 20080203 binary tool chain  my questions are: -should I just you that binarytoolchain with the 2010 library? - I'm on ubuntu 11.04 , X64 system, do I relly need the 4.2 gcc, and if so where do you guys get it form because its not even at the ubuntu 11.04 repositories.  - also if when I download the binary toolchain , should I just drop it in the ..../nios2-linux/toolcahin-builds/ folder?  thanks a bunch its my first time trying to run an embedded linux enviroment.  I appreciate all the help I can get.  Please help. I am really on a dead end here.

Hey guys,  

 Sorry for the bump.  Im really in a bind here. I actually during the weekend have untarred the 2008 toolchain  inside of the .../nios2-linux/toolchain-build (where the $PATH points to) and I have tried to compile the hello world from the install niosII linux page. and I get an error that it cannot open the header file.   Thanks for any help Gabriel

Are you trying to compile the toolchain for Linux with or without an MMU? 

 I recommend using a 32-bit host to compile the toolchain -- I never had any success on 64-bit.
