DS development > Problems with compiling

#144953 - GeekyLink - Fri Nov 09, 2007 8:14 pm

I recently built a computer for a friend of mine; they asked me to install the software for DS programming for them onto the computer. The computer is running: Windows 2000 SP4

Installation went fine, but when I went compile a test it gave me this error:

C:\devkitPro\examples\nds\Graphics\2D\hello_world>make
linking hello_world.elf
c:/devkitpro/devkitarm/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-eabi/4.1.2/../../../../arm-eabi/lib/th
umb/ds_arm9_crt0.o: In function `CIDLoop':
ds_arm9_crt0.s:(.init+0x2ac): undefined reference to `initSystem'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [/c/devkitPro/examples/nds/Graphics/2D/hello_world/hello_world.elf]
Error 1
make: *** [build] Error 2

Now, I've successfully installed devkitARM on Vista, and 2000 previously and never encountered this problem. (For vista I had to add a couple environment variables, but that's beside the point)

If it makes a difference, I tried compiling a GBA rom from the examples/gba folder, and that worked fine

Does anyone, have any idea why devkitARM isn't running on the computer I built? The only other additional software I have installed on the computer so far is: Photoshop 7, Firefox 2, Opera 9.24, and Trillian

Thank you for your time,
