okidokey, many thanks for clarifying.

ah sorry. id recommend compiling within aros build system and using its paths and features. installing and sudo isnt necessary then, neither recommended id say, i have completely given up on this and never went back. the paths are abstracted away, just take look at aros mmakefile.src files.
however if you want to use the compilers outside the build environment and its scripts you will have to use full paths to the tools im afraid. or if you put them in the PATH you will have to use more specific target triplets, to specify what exact tool/compiler you want to use. to know what they are examine the contents of your crosstools. the appropriate backends have been generated,

sorry i should have been more clear, i ment the setup for crosscompiling. i've compiled helloworld just fine, but just thought it was abit curious that i had to manually add a PATH variable to get it going.

i've no problems really, just wanted verification that it is how it's done. i'm used to "make install" taking care of things.

btw i recommend compiling outside the source.

aint there /AROS-20180903-source/bin/linux-x86_64/AROS?

it would be your system dir. go inside boot subdir there will be AROSBootstrap progam. It runs AROS. you can configure it furher using accompanying text file.

Hey,

So i've compiled and run Aros 64bit Linux Hosted successfully
but i'm wondering what to set up afterwards.

I've done make install but not with sudo, thought i'd better ask before i wreck anything.

I also did a manual PATH variable to

/AROS-20180903-source/bin/linux-x86_64/tools/crosstools
/AROS-20180903-source/bin/linux-x86_64/tools

and things seem to work just fine but i didn't see this step mentioned in the guide.

is this how it's supposed to be done?

thanks.
