Hi again,
Thank you for your fast answers.
Sorry. I was reading the manual in the U-Boot webpage and miss understood
some of the topics. I just wanted to get the develop tools in order to compile and develop the U-Boot for the MCF54455. The manual points something (toolchain?) called ELDK that runs under Linux, but currently I'm tied to Windows as host. I don't know the version to install either since I can't find the Coldfire v4 architecture file in the FTP server.
Any development platform or tip will be welcomed. By the way, right now I
only have intalled CodeWarrior for Coldfire v7.2 and Code Composer Studio 3.3.1. Should I try with Codesourcery?
of course, the best solution is to switch to Linux as a development host. ;-) There are many possibilities, but I think the second best possibility is using coLinux to set up a "virtual" Linux on top of your Windows box. *) In this virtual Linux, you can do anything you would do in a native Linux box, including using LTIB and ELDK (is there a version of the latter for coldfire meanwhile?!).
Better yet, just install Virtual Box (virtualbox.org) and Ubuntu. Compile
time might be a bit slower than coLinux, but it's soooo easy.
Setting up coLinux on your own can be a bit tricky. Maybe somebody can recommend a pre-built image for it that does not have some strange non-standard default settings?

Wolfgang
