When we made the upgrade we couldn't get u-boot-1.0.0 to compile with the new toolchain. Now, we'd like to upgrade u-boot so it compiles with the same toolchain as our firmware image. I am able to get u-boot-1.1.6 to compile with the new toolchain. However, it will not get past recognizing the flash during boot. The output is given below. As you can see, it is reading a value of 0x1f8b08 for the manufacturer type when it should be reading 0x0001 for AMD.

Try using the latest code from the git repository. There's a fix for AMD flash chips and manufacturer IDs.
