    I have tried the Window pathname suggestions, with no real success. 
    I've decided to eliminate this as a variable, so I have switched to
    try to build FFmpeg libs under Linux(Ubuntu 17.10).  This is the
    exact process that I have followed so far: <br>
    <div class="moz-forward-container"><b> <br>
      </b>1: I have downloaded and decompressed ffmpeg v4.0.2 into
      ffmpeg source root directory.<br>
      2: I have downloaded and installed Pre-buil2 GNU toolchain forArm
      Cortex-M for Linux (gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2018-q2 update-linux)<br>
          from Arm website: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
        href="https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm"
        moz-do-not-send="true">https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm</a><br>
      3: from cli, I set working directory to ffmpeg source root
      directory.  ( I created a simple helloworld.c program in working
      directory, to test compiler)<br>
      4: from cli,  I verified arm compiler did successfully create
      expected object file for helloworld.c test.<br>
      5: from cli, I ran cofigure shell script:<br>
      <span>$ ./configure --enable-cross-compile
        --cc=/home/ed/Project/armCrossCompile gcc-arm-none-eabi-</span><span>eabi-gcc
        --target-os=none arch=arm  <br>
        6: This is the returned error message:
                                              <br>
        <font color="#ff0000"><font color="#3333ff">/home/ed/Project/armCrossCompile/gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2018-q2-update/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc</font>
          is unable to create an executable file. </font></span><font
        color="#ff0000"><span>C compiler test failed.</span></font><span>
        <br>
        <br>
        I have attached zipped log file to show any possible clues.  I
        won't be able to do too much more today.  I will start Monday
        morning trying to understand what the log file is showing and
        what I might be missing.  Again, any advice is appreciated.<br>
        <br>
        Thanks,<br>

            It being windows and all. I have much better success cross
