Use the UNIX command "file" on the output of the compiler. When I do this on u-boot I get:
# file u-boot u-boot: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, MIPS, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped
This shows that it is a little-endian (LSB) executable for MIPS.

Does anyone know a good way to test to see if a cross compiler is working? I have what I believe to be a cross compiler for a mpc8540 cpu. However I am not sure if its working. I can compile u-boot with the compiler but that does not tell me much since u-boot does not support the board I am using specifically. I really don't want to go forward working on getting u-boot to run on this board only to find out of compiler is broken. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
