Hi,
I am new to uc linux.
I have downloaded the nios2-gcc tool chain from
ftp://ftp.altera.com/outgoing/nios2gcc-20080203.tar.bz2 (
ftp://ftp.altera.com/outgoing/nios2gcc-20080203.tar.bz2) on a linux machine and got the file copied to a XP machine. I am unzipping the files using coLinux environmant. It is always ending up in errors. Can any one help me how to untar these files without errors.
Regards,
Muralidhar[/b]

I am guessing you're trying to unzip the files to a non-linux file system such as NTFS. NTFS doesn't support ext3-style symlinks and that might be where your problem is. Stop all thoughts of developing in Windows only and go install Sun Virtualbox and install a virtualized ubuntu or something like that. Then mount a common drive and write your code in your favorite Windows IDE and save and compile on linux, if you're so kean on Windows.

I think he's using it to bump his post. That's all.
