<P><FONT SIZE=2>Great!</FONT>

<P> <FONT SIZE=2>Installing the correct version of autoconf and automake solved my problems. But this leads me to another question... </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>How can I have two versions of RTEMS coexisting peacefully on one system, 4.5.0 & 'current' for example. I know I can specify the install directory for RTEMS and I need to put the correct version of automake & autoconf in the rtems/bin directory. But what about the toolsets?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Nope, this can't help. autoconf and automake are non relocatible.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Yes, you need to have autoconf-2.13 and automake-1.4/automake-1.4_p5 for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>rtems-4.5.x.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>> What all did you copy? </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Forget about copying, this can't work. You need to build both,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>autoconf-1.13 _and_ automake-1.4x with the same prefix from source.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I.e. If wanting to use rtems-4.5.x and wanting to install it to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>/opt/rtems, I would recommend to build</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>autoconf-2.13</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>automake-1.4</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>from source, using --prefix=/opt/rtems</FONT>
</P>
<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>> It would be easy to not grabbed them all.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> I think it would be safer to download the old autoconf version,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> configure</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> it to be in /opt/rtems and do a make all install. It builds and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> installs</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> from source in seconds.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Right, this is __the__ solution.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>> And make sure your PATH has the new tools first.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>=> Set PATH=/opt/rtems/bin:$PATH if working with RTEMS-4.5.x</FONT>
