    Hi,


    I assume you have followed all the steps for Windows, and correct me if I am wrong, that you are facing issue when executing installer "./install_linaro.sh"?


    Have you tried running your "/msys.bat" as administrator?

      yes, you are right.

      i follow up the instructions step by step.

      1. Run 

      C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat
      as an administrator.

      2. In the Msys console, go to linaro folder:

      For 20.1 Pro:

      cd c:/intelFPGA_pro/20.1/embedded/host_tools/linaro

      3. Run the installer:

      ./install_linaro.sh

      4. Linaro toolchain will be downloaded, and newlib library will be downloaded and compiled.

      5. Upon succesfull completion, the following will be installed in the 

      linaro
      folder:

      and after these steps done, i waitted for serveral hours, the installer screen stopped without any information to inform me the installation completed, you can see the information details i attached in the first post.

      and i checked 2 folders appeared in the path( C:\intelFPGA_pro\20.1\embedded\host_tools\linaro)

      one is gcc, the other is newlib-cygwin.

      pls tell me how can i know the installation is successfully completed?

      i also attached the printed screen after i start the EDS command shell for your reference.

    Hi,


    Upon successful, it will reach 100% download , the size is around 500MB++, once finished it will be back to the Msys console prompt.


    Can you share the Msys prompt console logs/screenshot when executing the linaro installation script.?

    Hi,


    I did not get any issue on mine, have you tried a new install and follow the installation thoroughly?


    May I know what is your Windows version?
