No i am preparing kernel. During the time of copying the header files of kernel the command cp -r $PROJECT /kernel/linux-2.6.20/include ${TARGET_PREFIX}include displays error like:-

No such directory or file…..

It works fine when I use command cp -r $PROJECT/home/partap/Control-project/kernel/linux-2.6.20/include ${TARGET_PREFIX}include …..

plzzzzzzz provide the solution for this type of problem

Also I am using make headers_install.

Currently about half of the architectures have full TLS support (ie binutils + gcc + glibc).

There are some patches for glibc available for the TLS support use them .

so if you are making toolchain without support of tls then you hav to remove this –without-tls option(in Configuration ) and make it –with-tls .

for the too old kernel headers use –with-headers=PATH_to_arm_specific_headers .
then,
You need to run “make headers_install”

#error TLS support is required
#error Kernel headers are too old
i am using kernel version 2.6.28 and glibc version 2.9 and gcc version 4.5.1

thanx in advance

PREFIX varibale here decide that path for us. So you’ve to configure packages again and also provide the PREFIX variable there, so that after compilation you have to just provide make install and the executable will then get installed on your defined path.

i have used this command to make all the binutils,gcc and glibc in diff-diff folders.
these all are configured properly but how can i link all this …? where is my cross compiler

you modified a `.texi’ or `.texinfo’ file, or any other file
indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. The spurious
call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make’ (AIX,
DU, IRIX). You might want to install the `Texinfo’ package or
the `GNU make’ package. Grab either from any GNU archive site.
