Hey All,
Really hoping for some help here.
Trying to setup my ubuntu distro ver 16.04 to run the ARM GCC toolchain but can't get it to install. Tried sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-embedded and get unable to locate package error and I'm pretty damn sure i installed the repository correctly.
This issue has now ate my entire day.
Help would be awesome.

I just download the 2018 q2 arm embedded toolchain from the arm website. Then unzip and add it to your environment.
Unzip and add to your environment? Are you even on ubuntu? Firstly nothing is zipped, its all compressed under some unix standard. Secondly, there isn't exactly an "add this to my environment" button. Hence why i've spent an entire day and an entire restless night trying to figure it out.. Reaching out to the forum is my final straw.
Looking for some commands to try or some screenshots of how it is actually done.
The firmware documentation is all out of date and nothing works or complies as it should anymore.

I use the ubuntu subsystem for windows, which lets you run anything you could run on ubuntu. I don't remember it being very difficult to setup for compiling.
These are the instructions I used.

It looks like the repo in Benjamin's guide is no longer there?
Yes my previous post was how I do it on linux.
Download the toolchain here
Extract wherever. To add the bin directory to your environment in terminal you can do
The sun and the stars have aligned. Finally got the code to compile and upload via stlink all off my Pi Ubuntu distro. Wooooooo.
@ district9prawn sorry I was a bit grumpy earlier. I was up all night watching small text scrolling down my screen and repeatedly writing new image files as I would corrupt my Ubuntu image with my experiements.
Finally got it to work by manually installing the embedded GCC compiler which is what I was actually missing.
