Hi Detlev Z,
Thanks for your suggestions, and after I upgraded the toolchain to v3.2, those problems went away.
However, new errors turned up as expected:
1) the invocations of U_BOOT_CMD in several .c files, common/cmd_bootm.c line 923, common/cmd_source.c line 232, common/cmd_ximg.c line 186 terminated the make process for the "unterminated argument list invoking macro "U_BOOT_CMD" ", known as the "parse error". So, I set the last argument of U_BOOT_CMD marco to NULL, and then make went silent.
2) this error came at the linking stage:
"arm-linux-ld:/home/johnson-yn/GEARI/u-boot-2009.06/board/atmel/at91rm9200dk/u-boot.lds:40: parse error make: *** [u-boot] Error 1"
and the line 40 of u-boot.lds is :
.rodata : { *(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(SORT_BY_NAME(.rodata*))) }
how should I solve this?
If I just don't need use NAND flash module in u-boot, what are the steps I should take??
Regards,
Johnson Yu

Hi Johnson Y,
I met several compiling errors as below:
make -C cpu/arm920t/at91rm9200/ make[1]: Entering directory `/home/johnson-yn/GEARI/u-boot-2009.06/cpu/arm920t/at91rm9200' arm-linux-gcc: lowlevel_init.o: No such file or directory arm-linux-gcc: unrecognized option `-MQ'
[...]
Is that possibly because of the version of the cross compiler?? and should I raise it to cross 3.2 or higher to solve this problem??
The error message is clear - the U-Boot build uses an option which your compiler does not understand. You have two ways of fixing this
- upgrade your toolchain to a compiler understanding -MQ
- "downgrade" the U-Boot buildprocess for your toolchain
I advise 1) as 2) invests time into something you will need to abandon sometime anyhow.
Cheers Detlev
