Strange. I got my cygwin through the cygnus site, but as far as i can tell
it's the same as the one on arthurdent. Mine comes from one of the mirrors
on ftp://go.cygnus.com/pub/sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/cygwin/latest/. The
file is called full.exe.

I tried this on a NT 4 machine with little success. First of I got the
message:

chili : /legOS make
for i in util lib boot demo ; do make -C $i || exit -1 ; done
i was unexpected at this time.
make: *** [all] Error 1

After replacing the make version 3.75 which comes with the cygwin by a newer
version (3.77) I get
a little further:

Make --version gives me: "GNU Make version 3.75"


chili : /legOS make
for i in util lib boot demo ; do make -C $i || exit -1 ; done
make[1]: Entering directory `C:/legOS/util'
cc     firmdl3.c   -o firmdl3
process_begin: CreateProcess((null), cc firmdl3.c -o firmdl3, ...) failed.
make (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified.
make[1]: *** [firmdl3] Error 2

So I copied gcc to cc. Now I get:

This doesn't seem right. It should use gcc in the first place. Try "cygcheck
-s" in cygwin and see if it reports any errors, it should find gcc.exe
(amongst others).

gcc -o keepalive.o -c keepalive.c -O2 -Wall -I. -I../../include/lnp

These warnings seem to be harmless, i get them too.

make[2]: *** No rule to make target `lnp.o', needed by `dll'.  Stop.

I don't get this, if it has a rule for keepalive.o, i has one for lnp.o.
Anyone?

make[2]: Leaving directory `C:/legOS/util/dll-src'
exit: Illegal number: -1
make[1]: *** [dll] Error 2

The gcc in the cygwin version is egcs-2.91.57. Are you sure you are using the
same tools? I got mine from the
links in the web page.

Yes, i think so. I didn't get mine from Luis' page, but everything seems the
same. I'm using egcs-2.91.57 (for target i586-cygwin32). I see that i have a
/bin directory with sh.exe in it. I remember that this was recommended when
installing cygwin. They also recommend making a /tmp directory. Also, start
up cygwin with the cygnus.bat file (or through Start->Programs->Cygnus
Solutions->Cygwin B20).

That's all i can think of right now.

Hi, thank you all for your help. (...) works now. I think the problem was that I used MS Command Prompt and called bash there instead of using the cygwin window directly. (...) Could fix that as well. I used Winzip to unpack legOS instead of tar (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
