Hello everyone,
I've got a copy of mainline uboot. Here's the last log message in it;

And well, I'm having trouble building images for the sabreauto board. Here are the steps I follow,
make distclean make mx6qsabreauto_config make
And this is the error I get;

Now, what bothers me is NOT the error, but how I resolved it. In the above run, I've been using linaro's cross-compiler. If I switch over to using the toolchain from Mentor Graphics (code-sorcery free version), the build compiles without issues (I can even boot the resulting image on a board!).
Here are details of the cross-compilers I've been using,
From Linaro;

This is the second time I've had issues because of the toolchain. The last time was because the utility omap4boot wouldn't work unless it was built from MentorGraphics toolchain. Using Linaro's version, it would build successfully, but the resulting image wouldn't run.
Has anyone else on this mailing list had trouble when using Linaro's toolchain? Any theories on why it's not working as intended?
Really puzzled, Abraham V.
