gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi command not found


fixed, using:

sudo apt-get install gcc-arm*


Are you compiling on a 64-bit OS? Try:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

I had the same problem when trying to compile the Raspberry Pi kernel. I was cross-compiling on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit and the toolchain requires ia32-libs to work on on a 64-bit system.

CodeSourcery convention is to use prefix arm-none-linux-gnueabi- for all executables, not gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi that you mention. So, standard name for CodeSourcery gcc would be arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc.

After you have installed CodeSourcery G++, you need to add CodeSourcery directory into your PATH.

Typically, I prefer to install CodeSourcery into directory like /opt/arm-2010q1 or something like that. If you don't know where you have installed it, you can find it using locate arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc, however you may need to force to update your locate db using sudo updatedb before locate will work properly.

After you have identified where your CodeSourcery is installed, add it your PATH by editing ~/.bashrc like this:

PATH=/opt/arm-2010q1/bin:$PATH

Also, it is customary and very convenient to define

CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-

in your .bashrc, because with CROSS_COMPILE defined, most tools will automatically use proper compiler for ARM compilation without you doing anything.
