arm-none-eabi commands will not install correctly

I'm attempting to install a toolchain for assembly code on the raspberry pi. I used the following procedure to install the package files:

$ wget http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/freshers/raspberrypi/tutorials/os/downloads/arm-none-eabi.tar.bz2

$ export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/arm-2008q3/bin

That appeared to work, the package files are in the correct place.

 ~/arm-2008q3/bin $ ls
arm-none-eabi-addr2line  arm-none-eabi-gcc-4.3.2  arm-none-eabi-objdump
arm-none-eabi-ar         arm-none-eabi-gcov       arm-none-eabi-ranlib
arm-none-eabi-as         arm-none-eabi-gdb        arm-none-eabi-readelf
arm-none-eabi-c++        arm-none-eabi-gdbtui     arm-none-eabi-run
arm-none-eabi-c++filt    arm-none-eabi-gprof      arm-none-eabi-size
arm-none-eabi-cpp        arm-none-eabi-ld         arm-none-eabi-sprite
arm-none-eabi-g++        arm-none-eabi-nm         arm-none-eabi-strings
arm-none-eabi-gcc        arm-none-eabi-objcopy    arm-none-eabi-strip

However, when I go to make, I get the following outcome.

arm-none-eabi-as -I source/ source/main.s -o build/main.o
make: arm-none-eabi-as: Command not found
make: *** [build/main.o] Error 127

Thanks in advance for any help.

You have to direct your compiler to the right path where arm-none-eabi-as is located. You can do so by

export PATH=$PATH:/file_path_goes_here/

When you compile, you should have no problems as the compiler will now know where to look.

I encountered the same problem and in my case the problem was that I was running a 64-bit operating system and the package to be used is a 32-bit. The fix was to install i32-libs package which allows running 32-bit applications on a 64-bit system.

# apt-get install ia32-libs

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/arm-2008q3/bin is only valid in the shell it is executed in (and any shells spawned from that shell). So you either use that shell instead of opening a new one to execute make or edit your ~/.bashrc (see Unix: Getting Export PATH to "Stick")
