Note that I selected the DULG-version  for  a  board  for  which  2.6
kernel support is available.

trying to execute powerPC code (fixdep) on my Pentium box.  Where can I
get a X86 version of this program?

This is a consequence of wrong make commands.

##### Make attempt:
mathews@mathews:~/ELDK/ppc_6xx/usr/src/linux-2.6.15> make
O=/home/name/build/kernel menuconfig

You must pass correct ARCH= and CROSS_COMPILE= arguments when running
make, i. e.

	make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx- ... menuconfig

etc. Also make sure to start from a clean  source  tree,  i.  e.  run
"make mrproper" to clean up before configuring your board.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
