Yeah... different assumptions. :)

With C, it doesn't matter? What if you have gcc and clang installed simultaneously? Tanget: https://llvm.org/

But, that's besides your point. I do think your...

@TheFu, wow crazy times indeed! Embedded programming has never been easier, and the Pico is dirt cheap. There is even a Wifi version. About ~ $6 USD.

@SeijiSensei Cool beans. Yeah, I have been...

Does the running from command line in README.md need to suggest chmod +x or would having only the user run it be acceptable, as in chmod u+x ?

Ah, good point! I suppose we don't want every compiler looking for libraries in the same place!

A related question, I downloaded the latest pre-built cross-compiler toolchain for bare metal target running on Linux x_86 host: x86_64 Linux hosted cross toolchains
AArch32 bare-metal target...

Quick note, I suppose we would want to append the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to the end of the existing in case you have more than one path to the libraries:

Ah, no? Well, I mean, why is /etc/profile there with comments if we are not meant to edit it? I'm not saying you don't have great advice here, but can you please provide an example of how things can...

Great, thanks for the detailed explanation.

I compiled a gcc cross-compiler for an arm target and the GNU docs seem to say the default install prefix is /usr/local so I think I'm good there.

What TheFu said. Which toolchain, how did you install it, where did you get it? Which Linux version? You are not giving us much to go on.

<header.h> is going to be part of your C standard library...

Seems like man hier tries to explain where one traditionally puts binaries. I guess binaries from packages that users can run typically go in /usr/bin but if I download source code, compile, then...

I guess the Acer from 2011 I'm using right now is old, but works fine. ;)

My first Intel PC was the IBM PS-2 Model 25. Such an oddball! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_PS/2_Model_25 The keyboard...

I can also recommend Slackware for an old 32bit PC. You just need 64Kb RAM, but 1Gb is suggested.

LOL, no need to do the bold and ALL caps thing, we're trying to help, but we need to be on the same page, and next time connect the 256Gb USB stick.

FYI, some people see ALL CAPS as SHOUTING and...

Bloat and inefficient code has been an issue for at least 30 years as storage and RAM got larger, and programmers were no longer forced to optimize as much.

When I took a discrete mathematics...

@rahidz Glad you got it working. Just curious, you installed Ubuntu, did you leave all options at default?

@oldfred Is there any way to avoid this situation in which the installer creates another...

Also try hitting up the server team on IRC https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/

Absolutely, Ubuntu is mainstream, and that's great for the majority. Not great for those who can't afford to buy a lot of expensive PC hardware. Fortunately there are plenty of distros out there. I...

Definitely get that bootinfo summary posted. Also, can you please elaborate on the part about "trying to install 22.04." I'm unclear as to how far you got with the trying process, which flavor of...

Why? Because the technical board said so. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TechnicalBoard
They publish minutes (I didn't read).

It has been a while, but I got server w/tftp set up ok, as far as I know (I can use tftp client to get a simple text file).
Server used: Ubuntu Desktop 21.10, with tftp-hpa,

After I configure...

Thanks for the details everyone.

What about Ubuntu appeals to all of you, as opposed to any other distro?

Ubuntu is actively developed, but so are others.

Just curious.

Yup, I considered that. I'm sure it would work. I'm really liking Slack. Has a security mailing list, so I can apply patches daily.

Now that's pretty cool!

I have an actual Raspberry Pi also, but had no idea this existed, thanks.

Can you also post the output of

sudo blkid

So you have two things you are trying to do, right?
1) get rid of an UEFI entry on the motherboard
2) have an external drive with a full...

OK, help us understand which drives are inside the PC, and which are external. Hopefully you know your models.
