   8 ==Quick Start
   9 These are the quick steps to get gcc4mbed installed on your computer:
  10 * Download the gcc4mbed compressed archive from [[https://github.com/adamgreen/gcc4mbed/zipball/master]]
  11 * Decompress and extract the contents of this archive.
  12 * Run the install script appropriate for your platform:
  13 ** Windows: win_install.cmd
  14 ** OS X: mac_install
  15 ** Linux: linux_install
  16 * You can then run the BuildShell script which will be created during the install to properly configure the PATH environment variable.  You may want to edit this script to further customize your development environment.
  17
  18 ===Important Notes:
  19 * Files will fail to install to a FAT based file system.  Extract to a more appropriate file system (ie. NTFS on Windows) first and then copy to a FAT drive after installation.
  20 * If the installation should fail, please refer to win_install.log, linux_install.log, or mac_install.log.  It will contain the details of the installation process and any errors that were encountered.
  21 * The OS X install only supports 64-bit Intel machines.  The installers for the other platforms only install 32-bit Intel binaries.
