Hello Srikanth,
I'd like to use the 440GX (or 440GP) so I got the ELDK and U-Boot 0.4. The ELDK doesn't specifically say that it supports the 440 series, do you know if anyone has been successfuly in building 440 binaries using ELDK?
I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work - there's even one supported board using a 440 - but I haven't done it myself.
Also, I've never used U-Boot before, but I'm *assuming* that once I get U-Boot running on my board, I can just load up the application built with ELDK (assuming of course the it can build 440 compatible binaries) and it should work?
Yes.
Am I completely missing something here?
No.
Intially, I just want to get a simple "hello world" program working (ie, not attempting to boot Linux yet)
Check examples/hello_world.c which compiles into a standalone application ready to run from U-Boot.
Cheers Detlev
