Install problems ARCH Linux X64

[diginfo]

Just received the Arty A7: Artix-7 and was keen to get started but failed at the first hurdle !

After cloning, make install fails with:

make: *** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop.

Followed by:

So it looks like this needs powershell, which I attempted to install but the install got trapped in a endless loop with 100% cpu usage for around an hour before I killed it.

As this is only to create som udev rules, can I create these rules manually ?

Thanks

What instructions are you following?

There are two guides for the Arty A7 on the wiki; https://github.com/timvideos/litex-buildenv/wiki

I am following these instructions:

https://github.com/timvideos/litex-buildenv/wiki/HowTo-FuPy-on-a-Digilent-Arty-A7

Just received the arty-a7 and are trying to run fupy on arch linux 64

All of my other development is done on arch 64 (esp32, pyboard, esp8266, lobo/esp32) and I would prefer not to have to create a ubuntu VM just to run fupy :-)

yes, but it seems troubling that it gets stuck. we would much prefer figuring out what is broken.

...powershell, which I attempted to install but the install got trapped in a endless loop

what?

ps - I am barely qualified to help, I mostly try to clean up the docs and keep track of what is current vs deprecated.

Checking hdmi2usb-human-path-helper.sh..

As you can see the script failed trying to execute posh, which I assume is a dependancy for powershell ?

udev/Makefile

test:
    @for HELP in hdmi2usb-*-helper.sh; do \
        echo "Checking $$HELP.."; \
        SHELL=/bin/posh posh $$HELP test || exit 1; \
        echo " Good!"; \
    done

This error can be overcome by switching to a different shell:

test:
    @for HELP in hdmi2usb-*-helper.sh; do \
        echo "Checking $$HELP.."; \
        #SHELL=/bin/posh posh $$HELP test || exit 1; \
        SHELL=/bin/sh sh $$HELP test || exit 1; \
        echo " Good!"; \
    done

but make install still fails:

# make install
make: *** No rule to make target 'install'.  Stop.

If I just run make, then the building of the scripts fails with "W504 line break after binary operator" errors:
