Installing the PSPSDK (Linux or Windows)

[SifJar]

that looks similar to what i see. what do you mean by "the libraries aren't installed this way"?

If I try to make the sample app, it says that liblua is missing. But the lliblua.a file is in the lib directory, so the library is "there", but not "installed" I guess.

updated the tut to cover installing minpspw on linux, which i suggest for noobs (unless you're up for the challenge of installing the psptoolchain )

just tried again after reformatting my computer for the umpteenth time. psplinkusb seems to be missing now, or at least moved according to the site.

Edit: ok, i got it working. had to download psplinkusb from the trunk folder, move it into pspsdk and run the toolchain script again to get it to work

I have it all installed.. But now I do..

Code: Select all

sudo su
cd psptoolchain
make release

And get this error:

Code: Select all

make: *** No rule to make target `release'.  Stop.

wrong. first you have to change your scripts as mentioned in the first post, as well as a couple others mentioned on the 3rd page. then you run it as

Code: Select all

sudo su
cd psptoolchain
./toolchain-sudo.sh

and the toolchain will begin to download from the repository and install for root to access it. there is no need for you to run make, other than perhaps the psplinkusb package. for that you go as

Code: Select all

cd psptoolchain/build/psplinkusb
make release

and it will compile just about everything in the psplinkusb package

just guessing, but it seems like he's trying to build something other than the psptoolchain. anyway, apparently make release is not defined in your makefile. open it up and see.

[HeroKing]

no, his issue is that he's trying to run make release from the same location as the sudo-toolchain.sh location, which doesn't even have a makefile in the first place

Hero had it right.. I am new when it comes to this sort of thing..
What I am really trying to do is get psplink working on my Ubuntu 11.10.

I have everything installed, I'm just not sure how to get link up-and-running

[HeroKing]

well, what i did for starters was cd into the psplinkusb folder and ran "make release" which compiled all that ready to be used. the other stuff within the sdk i haven't touched yet. but the psplinkusb has a pdf file to teach you how to use it
