make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/home/ubuntu/Software_ToolChain/gcc-linaro-6.4.1-2017.11-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-

poped up an error as shown below

Do you have the binaries in the path mentioned?

Oh! More than that, it seems you have downloaded the wrong toolchain. mingw32 is mainly for running on Windows. Download the correct toolchain.

Hi Pradeep,

It's not the issue of your gcc version. It's the problem of gcc toolchain. Download the toolchain (arm-linux-gnueabihf-) version greater than 6.0. Give path for  CROSS_COMPILE of new toolchain and compile again.

​just put below link on terminal,you will get ​arm-linux-gnueabihf-6.4 version.

wget -c https://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/6.4-2017.11/arm-linux-gnueabihf/gcc-linaro-6.4.1-2017.11-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz

tar xf gcc-linaro-6.4.1-2017.11-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz

export CC=`pwd`/gcc-linaro-6.4.1-2017.11-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC} 

Thanks and regards,

​Pranav​.
