Alright, I want to do some NDS development on OSX, so I downloaded the following items:
devkitARM_r26-osx.tar.bz2
libnds-1.3.4.tar.bz2
maxmod-nds-1.0.5.tar.bz2
dswifi-0.3.8.tar.bz2
nds-examples-20090531.tar.bz2

I then unarchived each of the following files into the following directories:
devkitARM
libnds-1.3.4
maxmod-nds-1.0.5
dswifi-0.3.8
nds-examples-20090531

I then put each of these directories into a parent directory: devkitPRO

I then created two environment variables:

Code: Select all

$export DEVKITPRO=~/Desktop/devkitPRO   ;This is where I have my test devkit.
$export DEVKITARM=$DEVKITPRO/devkitARM

Then I changed to the hello_world directory of nds-examples. Here is the output of a make command:

Code: Select all

$ make

arm-eabi-g++ -MMD -MP -MF /Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/devkitARM/examples/hello_world/build/main.d -g -Wall -O2 -march=armv5te -mtune=arm946e-s -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -mthumb -mthumb-interwork -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/devkitARM/examples/hello_world/include -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/devkitARM/examples/hello_world/build -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/libnds/include -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/libnds/include -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/devkitARM/examples/hello_world/build -DARM9 -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -c /Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/devkitARM/examples/hello_world/source/main.cpp -o main.o

So, how do I make it recognize nds.h? I would prefer not changing the INCLUDE variables for my entire system.

Well, I fixed the problem by changing the directories to the following names:

Code: Select all

dswifi
libnds
maxmod

Now, I am getting the following error:

Code: Select all

make
main.cpp
arm-eabi-g++ -MMD -MP -MF /Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/nds-examples-20090531/hello_world/build/main.d -g -Wall -O2 -march=armv5te -mtune=arm946e-s -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -mthumb -mthumb-interwork -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/nds-examples-20090531/hello_world/include -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/nds-examples-20090531/hello_world/build -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/libnds/include -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/libnds/include -I/Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/nds-examples-20090531/hello_world/build -DARM9 -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -c /Users/slithe/Desktop/devkitPRO/nds-examples-20090531/hello_world/source/main.cpp -o main.o

Look here, maybe it helps you.

See the instructions at http://wiki.devkitpro.org/index.php/Get ... /devkitARM

dswifi, maxmod & filesystem all go in the devkitpro/libnds folder, you'll also need the default.arm7.

As for the bus error, is this OSX Tiger running on a G5 by any chance?

Nope. It is a plain-old Core-Duo Macbook with OSX 10.4.

Also, I tried that ndstool that was linked to, and it still did not help.

Try this binary - http://sourceforge.net/project/download ... a=80434670

If that still crashes then try running it through gdb & let me know what it says. A backtrace might be useful.
