Hi, Looks like the syntax for .lds file has changed. It does not like any defines. I was trying to get the new syntax in .lds files to include file or define a constan but could not get a definitive answere. Any help is appreciated. By the way I have my own file for the custom board. Since the standard one also exhibited the problem I choose to send the error from taihu board.

Thanks for the help. I deleted the flash.c and enabled the standard
CFI
and it seems to have fixed my problem. As per your suggestion I
downloaded
the latest current version of U-boot ( u-boot-2010.06-rc3) and Iam getting the following error during compilation.

You should not use the Taihu board consifuration, but instead create your own.

syntax error Can you please tell me what I am missing ??
This should not happen. Either your tool chain is broken, or there was some problem with your download. Is there any chance that a Windows system was involved, so you have corrupted line endings (\r\n instead of plain \n) ?
Best regards,
