Have you set
QNX_TARGET and QNX HOST, it sounds like your build environment isn't set correctly.

Thank you,

I understand now,

I am trying to make a build environment on x86-linux platform to cross compile some open source packages to armv7-nto-
qnx.  Since, I do not rebuild qnx compiler, and only use the downloaded toolchain along with native/target libraries 
provided by this project, I do not have control for the linking process.

The problem i am having right now is that the binary tool (gcc), always want to load in c startup objects in armv7/armle
-v7/lib/crt1.o with a simple hello world program.  That path was preconfigured while building the compiler for qnx.  it 
was probably defined using the preprocessor while building GCC:

#define STANDARD_STARTFILE_PREFIX "/some_cross_platform_library_path/lib/"



I would like to know if there is anyway I can modify the current precompiled linker (or linker script) to not search for
 C-runtime (crt.o) in its standard location at armv7/armle-v7/lib/crt1.o.  I tried telling the linker where to find the 
c-runtime using -L -I search path arguments and the linker still error out, saying that path to object armv7/armle-v7/
lib/crt1* not found.  Certainly, since I am making a build environment, i do not want to be in the target directory 
where the linker can find its C-runtime library all the time.


Presently, I can only compile a hello world application under my development environment by telling gcc not to use its 
linker script and c-runtime libraries by passing the following arguments.

ntoarmv7-gcc -nostdlib -L$root/usr/lib hello.c $root/usr/lib/armv7/armle-v7/lib/{crt*.o,libc.so.3}

 This is only a work-around method.  To have a truely cross platform toolchain, like the toolchain I made for arm-linux,
 the linker must not always try to find its C-runtime library at a fixed location.
