quite possibly.

I looked there briefly and found nothing before I went for the debian tools.
where would they be?

[ECOS] compile probblem with arm-linux-gcc

[Andreas Schuldei]

I downloaded the very cool binutils and gcc (and so on) from
http://www.endebian.com . They provide cross developement tools in *.deb and
*.rpm format. (I run debian woody)

then, I created a few symbolic links because eCos calls the tools arm-elf-gcc
etc and in the packages they are called arm-linux-gcc.
I created links for ar, gcc, as and objcopy. Is anything else needed? 

When I compile the system (make -k) three files fail to compile with errors of
the assembler:

What could I do? This is nothing I am familiar with.

excuse me, I forgot that, no it is not. 700M left. if the generated object
file would be that big I look for an other embedded system development
environment.

Hi Andreas,

This is just a way-out guess, but are you logged in as root? If not, 
perhaps you could check to see if there are extant files 
src/common/kernel_thread.o, src/sync/kernel_mutex.o.

Another maybe (bear in mind I am no expert on Linux, gcc or eCos...) - 
could it be you have parallel processes trying to write the same file?
