Fine. > However, when I tried to rebuild the kernel (2.4.4 which came with ELDK) it > gives me the following error. This is a deficiency in the ELDK. For 4xx systems you need a recent kernel. I recommend the linuxppc_2_4_devel tree from the bitkeeper archives, or from our CVS server. > Also, the documentation on http://www.denx.de/doc/ seems a bit old (it > still talks about ppcboot instead u-boot). Are there new ocuments or FAQ's > for a newbie like me? There aren't any significant differences between U-Boot and PPCboot if you're working on PowerPC systems. We are in the process of setting up new documentation (as a wiki), but this is not complete yet. If you have questions or problems, just ask, and we will help you.
