Folks,
I am having a "learning experience" in trying to compile u-boot for the AMCC Katmai board. It always gets through the entire build, right up to the final
link stage. The linking is failing with the .bss section overlapping the .resetvec section, and several episodes of "relocation truncated to fit."
My build platform is an AMD64 system:
uname -a: Linux wfbamd64 2.4.21-15.0.2.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jun 16 22:35:40 EDT 2004 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I've reproduced my errors with a CROSSTOOL cross-compiler GCC 4.0.0/GLIBC 2.3.5, and with a similar cross-compiler GCC 3.4.1/GLIBC 2.3.3.
To those who have successfully built the Katmai u-boot binaries (and I know you're out there!) I ask: how did you do it? What compiler/toolchain/cross-compiler, etc
did you use?
Thanks!
This is the tail of the compile attempt:
