In message [off-list ref] you wrote:
Sorry for not stating clearly. The image I refered to is the image made

You mentioned that "'make zImage' fails at the last step (building  a
zvmlinux)" which has nothing to do with PPCBoot.

Please try to specify your problem  again,  more  clearly,  with  all
details  like  the commands you enter and the error messages that are
printed.


Best regards,

After 'make zImage', here comes the error message.

ppc_8xx-ld -T ../ld.script -Ttext 0x00180000 -Bstatic -o zvmlinux head.o
../comm
on/relocate.o  misc-embedded.o ../common/misc-common.o

misc-embedded.o: In function `decompress_kernel':
misc-embedded.o(.text+0x28): undefined reference to `embed_config'
make[2]: *** [zvmlinux] Error 1

The comments on embed_config.c say that functions in that file are for
those embedded 8xx boards that do not have boot monitor support for
board information. The embed_config() just sets some values of bd_t.
Since I already have ppcboot running, I think I don't need any
embed_config stuff, or even boot stuff. Right?

Thank you very much.
