Hi @jaredwolff Just to clarify….
I have created a ~/.zephyrrc file which contains
export PATH=$PATH:/home/mike/cmake-3.18.5-Linux-x86_64/bin
export ZEPHYR_TOOLCHAIN_VARIANT=gnuarmemb
export GNUARMEMB_TOOLCHAIN_PATH="~/gnuarmemb"
I installed cmake-3.18.5 from source, so it installed it locally. Again not sure, that was the issue. The GNUARMEMB was installed into the directory ~/gnuarmemb
On first compile, I had to add the “-p” command, so ran west build -b circuitdojo_feather_nrf9160ns -p
Some of these steps may not be necessary, but it seems to compile a hex file now at least on Ubuntu. Next step will be to see if I can flash it from the VM or maybe in needs to be transferred to Windows for programming the board, but that’s tomorrow little game.
