im pretty sure the flashcatusb has a signed driver in windows 10, i have used it to flash routers, modems and motherboards in the past in windows 10, im thinking it may be that im using the wrong version of the software ?

You cant as per say download a program to compile it you need to create a linux dev enviroment with the nesessary dependancys and proform a git clone the source locally to work with it.

you could download the virtual dev enviroment from here but the link is sadly gone.
https://bitbucket.org/psyko_chewbacca/l ... evelopment

I believe you need i686-linux-gnu-gcc 5.4.0. is required it is mentioned in the code as well as gcc 3.3

I dont know if it compiles under WSL2 in windows 10 but likely it does and it is easy to setup if you are not linux savy.

As a generic Build enviroment probally it will need some sort of the below below wih debian/ ubuntu:

sudo apt install build-essential ccache ecj fastjar file g++ gawk \
gettext git java-propose-classpath libelf-dev libncurses5-dev \
libncursesw5-dev libssl-dev python python2.7-dev python3 unzip wget \
python3-distutils python3-setuptools rsync subversion swig time \
xsltproc zlib1g-dev

There is not much info in the top level makefile and I dont really know enough about the project to comment any futher.
https://bitbucket.org/psyko_chewbacca/l ... r/Makefile


best to contact psyko_chewbacca aka benny_diamond and ask him for a re-update of the dev tools or a list of what is required and i may be able to gelp you set up an image.
