Re: Progress in porting newlib to a new processor

Hello Jon,

   I did as told but I keep getting the following error when I try to 
run make.

configure: error: source directory already configured; run make 
distclean there first
make: *** [configure-target-newlib] Error 1

   I can't understand what's wrong. As instructed, I ran make distclean 
and then re-tried the whole process, but still no use. Can you suggest 
an alternative?

Thanks,
Harsha.
