4.1.2: Unarchiving the Tools

NOTE: This step is required if building BINUTILS, GCC, and NEWLIB using the procedures described in Using configure and make or Using the bit Script. It is NOT required if using the procedure described in Using RPM to Build BINUTILS GCC and NEWLIB.

While in the tools directory, unpack the compressed tar files using the following command sequence:

cd tools
tar xzf ../archive/gcc-everything-2.95.3.tar.gz
tar xzf ../archive/binutils-2.10.tar.gz
tar xzf ../archive/newlib-1.8.2.tar.gz

After the compressed tar files have been unpacked, the following directories will have been created under tools.

binutils-2.10
gcc-2.95.3
newlib-1.8.2

The tree should look something like the following figure:

/whatever/prefix/you/choose/
        archive/
            gcc-everything-2.95.3.tar.gz
            binutils-2.10.tar.gz
            newlib-1.8.2.tar.gz
            gcc-2.95.3-rtems-20010622a.diff.gz
            binutils-2.10-rtems-diff-20001107.gz
            newlib-1.8.2-rtems-20000606.diff.gz
        tools/
            binutils-2.10/
            gcc-2.95.3/
            newlib-1.8.2/
