Re: Re: ELDK help

Wolfgang,

     Thanks. That was the problem. I am using ELDK on x86 platform and
2.4.21 for powerpc kernel.

     ELDK worked for me greatly before. Just a few days ago,I found
that when I not use make clean, things work ok. However when I make
clean and make uImage, the following error message appears:

What host system are you running? Are you sure your native compiler is
working?

Which kernel tree is this? How did you configure the kernel? What is
the _exact_ sequence of commands you are using?

  It seems that the toolchain is broken since it used gcc instead of
ppc_82xx-gcc which caused error happen. I reinstalled the ELDK and

You are wrong. This is one of the source files which gets compiled
using the host's native compiler; the Makefile has this rule for it:

conmakehash: conmakehash.c
	$(HOSTCC) $(HOSTCFLAGS) -o conmakehash conmakehash.c

help. So what could be the problem? Some configuration changes?

Obviously your hostcompiler (gcc) and/or you host's binutils have some
problems. This is not a problem with the ELDK.
