I'm using the instructions in this blog post, which is intended for installing go 1.5 on the Raspberry Pi, to install golang on my Chromebook (which has ChrUbuntu not Chromium installed). The technique recommended in the blog post is to install a Golang 1.4 bootstrap compiler available here and then use that to build golang 1.5 (as you need a version of go installed to build 1.5). I tried this on the Raspberry pi and it worked, but when I ran this command from /go/src on ChrUbuntu
env GO_TEST_TIMEOUT_SCALE=10 GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=$HOME/go-linux-arm-bootstrap ./all.bash
It gave me this output
env GO_TEST_TIMEOUT_SCALE=10 GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=$HOME/go-linux-arm-bootstrap ./all.bash
# Building C bootstrap tool.
cmd/dist
./make.bash: line 121: /home/user/go-linux-arm/bootstrap/bin/go cannot execute binary file
Why am I getting this error message (is it because it's not compatible with ChrUbuntu) and how to do what I am trying to do. Thank you in advance.
