--- Comment #2 from kontakt at michaelstather dot com --- Thank you very much, compiling works now. But, I get linker errors. With gcc4.9.2 it works fine, but both with 5.2 and 6 I get e.g.: C:\AVRTools4Windows\share\doc\avr-libc-1.8.1\examples\demo>make avr-gcc -g -Wall -O2 -mmcu=atmega8 -c -o demo.o demo.c avr-gcc -g -Wall -O2 -mmcu=atmega8 -Wl,-Map,demo.map -o demo.elf demo.o c:/avrtools4windows/bin/../lib/gcc/avr/6.0.0/../../../../avr/bin/ld.exe: cannot find crtatmega8.o: No such file or directory c:/avrtools4windows/bin/../lib/gcc/avr/6.0.0/../../../../avr/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -latmega8 collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:75: recipe for target 'demo.elf' failed make: *** [demo.elf] Error 1 The file crtatmega8.o doesn't seem to exist. Other target mcus give similar errors.
