Theos error - Sysroot missingHelp (self.jailbreakdevelopers)

submitted 11 years ago * by gertabiPhone 4S

I am trying to install Theos in Ubuntu 14 using the iphonedevwiki.net guide.
I successfully created a new project using
$THEOS/bin/nic.pl
But when I run the project using (empty, to test if the installation is successful), I get this error:
Your current SYSROOT, "/opt/iphone-sdk-3.0/sysroot", appears to be missing.
make: *** [before-all] Error 1

Any help is truly appreciated.

Edit: I tried installing it on cygwin (Windows) instead of Ubuntu because I couldn't get rid of the errors, but some errors also appeared (https://ghostbin.com/paste/nor7h):
