-This demo is targeted towards the [[http://​www.ti.com/​tool/​ek-lm3s8962|Texas Instruments LM3S8962 Ethernet]] evaluation kit, with 256 kB internal Flash EEPROM and 64 kB internal RAM.+This demo is targeted towards the Texas Instruments LM3S8962 Ethernet evaluation kit, with 256 kB internal Flash EEPROM and 64 kB internal RAM.
  
 To program the bootloader into the internal flash on the LM3S6965 microcontroller,​ the LM Flash Programmer utility was used in combination with the In-Circuit Debugger Interface (ICDI), that is available on the board. ​ However, this is not required if you have another means of programming the internal flash. To program the bootloader into the internal flash on the LM3S6965 microcontroller,​ the LM Flash Programmer utility was used in combination with the In-Circuit Debugger Interface (ICDI), that is available on the board. ​ However, this is not required if you have another means of programming the internal flash.
  
-The demo programs ​are pre-configured for building with the {{:manual:arm-2013.11-24-arm-none-eabi.zip?​linkonly|Codesourcery G++ Lite}} (Target OS EABI) toolchain. Alternatively,​ you can use the [[manual:​demos:​gcc_arm_embedded|GCC ARM Embedded]] toolchain.+To build the demo programs ​you can use the [[https://​developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/​gnu-rm|GNU ARM Embedded]] toolchain.
  
 +===== Toolchain configuration =====
 +
 +The demo programs are configured for building with a Makefile. Before attempting to perform a build, update the location of the toolchain binaries (i.e. //​arm-none-eabi-gcc//​) in the Makefile. It is set in variable **TOOL_PATH**. If the toolchain binaries are available on the path, then the **TOOL_PATH** variable can be left empty.
 +
 +{{:​manual:​demos:​makefile_toolpath.png?​nolink&​|}}
 +
 +
 +It is assumed that tools such as GNU //make// and //rm// are installed and available on the path. For (Ubuntu) Linux users this can be achieved by running command: //sudo apt-get install build-essential//​. Windows users can install the [[https://​gnu-mcu-eclipse.github.io/​windows-build-tools/​|GNU MCU Eclipse Windows Build Tools]].
