[How to] How to use the compiled toolchain.sh on Vista

Post by AdHdPsPhAcKeR »

Most of you have problems with installing psptoolchain in cygwin on Windows vista. Here's the awnser to your problem.

Solution 1:

If you install cygwin, it doesn't use X:/cygwin/home/username/... but it uses X:/users/username/... so it doesn't use the data in the toolchain.sh script.
You can set the directories in the script to the right places.

Solution 2:

If ou run cygwin type this:

Code: Select all

mkpasswd -l > /etc/passwd
mkgroup -l > /etc/group
exit
This will solve the map problem, and now it uses X:/cygwin/home/username/... again like on other OS'es ;)

I will post an simple proces for cygwin on vista later,
for questions you could pm me here or on console-nation.nl if you are dutch.
