First-time installation on Ubuntu 16.04.06 LTS 64-bit on Hyper-V VM for a MangOH-Red with a Verizon WP7601-1.

I issue the command:

> make red\_wp76xx

and it ultimately fails with (a few prior lines for context):

> TOOLCHAIN\_DIR=/opt/swi/SWI9X07Y\_02.25.02.01/sysroots/x86\_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi   
> TOOLCHAIN\_PREFIX=arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-   
> MANGOH\_BOARD=red   
> mksys -t wp76xx --object-dir=build/red\_wp76xx --output-dir=build/update\_files/red mangOH.sdef

I’m not sure where to look for a solution.  
Thanks,
