Background

The LinkStation lacks virtually all necessary development tools, such as binutils or gcc, making it quite difficult to natively compile programs. Are you struggling to build a C compiler without a C compiler? The development tools project aims to solve this problem by offering a complete package of precompiled development tools and related libraries. Although certain tools from this package may work on a stock LinkStation, the development tools are specifically designed to be used on LinkStations with OpenLink firmware. You may download the latest version from the downloads area.

Installation instructions

Check which Linkstation model you have. Currently there are 2 different architectures PowerPC (LS1, HG, HS, Terastation, Terastation Pro) and MIPSel (LS2).

These should install all the development tools without asking, you will now have a working toolchain on your box!

PowerPC

ppc-tools-2_1.tgz 

 mkdir tmp
 cd tmp
 wget http://downloads.linkstationwiki.net/development_tools/ppc-tools-2_1.tgz 
 mkdir devtools
 cd devtools
 tar xzvf ../ppc-tools-2_1.tgz
 ./install.sh

MIPSel

mipsel-tools-2_1.tgz 

 mkdir tmp
 cd tmp
 wget http://downloads.linkstationwiki.net/development_tools/mipsel-tools-2_1.tgz
 mkdir devtools
 cd devtools
 tar xzvf ../mipsel-tools-2_1.tgz
