Hey everyone.
I'm having an issue installing the latest version of the toolchain. It appears to download the .tar.gz files fine, but when it gets to the unzipping and patching, this is what I get:
I've tried several times, and I'm not sure I know what's going on.
The /usr/local/psptoolchain/binutils-2.16.1.tar.gz file does exist, so I'm not sure why it says it can't find it
Has anyone else run into this error?
-PMF
"I'm a little source code, short and stout
Here is my input, here is my out."
"latest" = what version? Paste the output of "ls -al /usr/local/psptoolchain" and "md5sum /usr/local/psptoolchain/binutils-2.16.1.tar.gz" (as text). You could also run
It's the psptoolchain-20060110.tgz
However, this happened for me with the previous version of the toolchain as well, I can run and install the psptoolchain from last June just fine, that's the one I've been using for a while.

First I'd recommend using bash; it looks like you're running ash or something based on the error messages. Second, you're not running the cygwin gzip, you either have some win32 version of gzip earlier in your path, or you didn't install the cygwin gzip package.
I am using the bash shell, not ash, and I don't have gzip anywhere else on my system. I can use gzip just fine, that's how decompressed the tool chain from the command line in the first place.

like your output shows. You may be running bash in your shell, but /bin/sh must be different. This is probably not the source of your immediate problem but may cause issues elsewhere.
And for gzip, paste the output of "which gzip" and "gzip --version"; you're certainly not using the right one, because once again the error message it's displaying is not what the proper cygwin gzip displays. The one you have will work fine for decompressing files in the current directory or a relative path but will not handle the cygwin absolute paths.
regardless of what shell you see at your prompt, your /bin/sh is a copy of /bin/ash, and you should copy /bin/bash there instead to avoid future problems.
your gzip is not the right one, it is some other native Win32 version. The cygwin one is currently version 1.3.5 and does not contain "Win32" in the version string.
The toolchain is fine; fix these problems and it will work.
