Issues with compiling a program with KallistiOS

[assortedkingdede]

I have been having trouble getting KallistiOS to compile, here is the text from the command terminal:

Owner@Owner-PC /usr/local/dc/kos/examples/dreamcast/sound/hello-mp3
$ make
rm -f mp3test.elf romdisk.o mp3test.o
rm -f romdisk.o romdisk.img
/usr/local/dc/kos/utils/genromfs/genromfs -f romdisk.img -d romdisk -v

/usr/local/dc/kos/utils/bin2o/bin2o: line 18: /opt/toolchains/dc/sh-elf/bin/sh-elf-as: No such file or directory
make: *** [Makefile:20: romdisk.o] Error 1

I have traced the error back to bin2o but I cannot figure out why it is happening (I'm a noob at C programming).
Any information will help, Thanks!

This sounds like a toolchain misconfiguration issue. Since you are on Windows 10, you have 3 options:

• Use Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).
• Use a Docker image.
• Use DreamSDK.

If you are ready to dig on your issue, I think you have a PATH issue. You may check your environ.sh file vs. the path where your sh-elf toolchain is installed (default is in /opt/toolchains/dc/sh-elf).

I started to setup DreamSDK but the setup program does not recognize the installation of Git even though the command prompt says otherwise. Any info will help, Thanks!

DreamSDK R3 will be easier on these points. For R2, the current release, you have to install:
- Git
- SVN
- Python 2.7 32-bit (not 64-bit and not another version)

When installing all of these components please be sure to check the ‘Add in PATH’ option, i.e. you may check your installation after by opening a command-prompt and the following commands:
- git --version
- svn --version
- python --version

All of these commands should return something. If this is the case then the DreamSDK R2 package will install.

Git is the only install DreamSDK won't recognize even after checking the command prompt (The command prompt responded with "git version 2.26.2.windows.1" and python and svn also work.

Nvm Just relized that you were talking about creating a new pakage of DreamSDK that works better, Thanks for the Help!

Yes DreamSDK R3 is currently in beta stage but will be so much better in all ways.

For the current release (R2), may you try the following:
DreamSDK-R2-Setup.exe /LOG="C:\FileName.log"

Then post the content of the log file here (strip confidential information if any)

How should I try this?

You will execute the command[ DreamSDK-R2-Setup.exe /LOG="C:\FileName.log" ] through a commandline.
