Setting up the environment

First things first.. I need the environment to be able to code anything ...
As it turns out, you need two basic pieces of software:

1) The PSP Toolchain
(I'm installing this on my Gentoo box, but should also work if you have cygwin on windows)
$ wget http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/files/psptoolchain-20050724.tgz
(or from svn: svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/psptoolchain psptoolchain)
unpack and run:
$ ./toolchain.sh

This installs the toolchain (compiler, libraries, includes) into: /usr/local/pspdev
So you need to edit your .profile/.bashrc/etc and add:
export PSPDEV=/usr/local/pspdev
export PATH=$PATH:$PSPDEV/bin

2) The PSP SDK
$ svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/pspsdk pspsdk (To get the latest sdk)
then run:
$ ./bootstrap
$ ./configure ; make && make install
