Dear all 

 

I porting some software .  

for example for ARM 

 

./configure --prefix=/home/nick/minigui/tmp/  

--host=arm-linux  

--target=arm-linux 

 

I try to do it use next  

./configure --prefix=/home/nick/minigui/tmp/  

--host=nios2-linux  

--target=nios2--linux 

 

or 

 

./configure --prefix=/home/nick/minigui/tmp/  

--host=nios2-linux-uclibc  

--target=nios2--linux-uclibc  

 

 

 

but it is fail . I find we can't find nios2-linux-gnu or nios2-linux-uclibc-gnu 

 

can you help me ! thanks!

That&#39;s just part of porting to an unsupported architecture in an "autotools/autoconfig" based example. You&#39;re responsible for either modifying the configure.in (or something like that) or, if you&#39;re lucky...just adding the appropriate architecture/toolchain stuff in config.sub (config.sub.in). 

 

Initially, you might be able to get it to work just hacking the "configure" script, but you ought to be modifying the ".in" scripts...eventually. 

 

Cheers,
