Hi,
we use the ELDK on G4 here in the following way:
a) install ELDK on x86
b) move target directory (the one you would use for NFS) to your G4
c) chroot into that target directory on yout G4
d) manually mount /proc, setup path, ...
Compilation of u-boot and Linux Kernel works fine.
(tested with 82xx and 8xx).
Regards,
Torsten

Subject: ELDK on a PowerPC host machine?
I noticed that ELDK from denx does not support running
on a PowerPC host machine like the Power G4 or G5.
When I tried rebuilding it on a Power G4 with
YellowDog installed on it, it complained that the
PowerPC host machine is not supported. Why is this
host architecture not supported? I also found out that
MontaVista does not support the PowerPC host
architecture anymore which they did a while ago. What
seems to be the real reason for not supporting this?
Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the reply Demke. This is exactly how I
managed to get it going on my G4 even before I read
your mail. I am glad that I am on the right trac here.
