Wolgang, This question does pertain to the thread in question, but.. I am currently using your ELDK 4.1 Uclibc and have written various scripts that allow it to be used with buildroot makefiles. Are you going to releasing a newer version anytime soon?

PPCBoot was a in a distant past before U-Boot. Actually, PPCBoot 1.1.5 is more than 5 and a half years old. You cannot really expect a Neanderthal man to drive a space shuttle.
Is there a way to keep my old bootloader to boot a powerpc branch
kernel ? No. Please use a current U-Boot (i. e. at least U-Boot 1.3.0).
