Re: [U-Boot] cross compiling fw_printenv on big endian

Hi Jeff,

I seem to be having a problem with fw_printenv on my PowerPC 85xx target whereby I constantly get CRC32 errors:

# fw_printenv Warning: Bad CRC, using default environment

I tracked this down to the fact that u-boot/lib_generic/crc32.c is getting compiled with the __LITTLE_ENDIAN defined even though I have CROSS_COMPILE setup correctly [e.g. I can build u-boot.bin just fine].

This makes little sense to me, as then the crc version used in U-Boot would also use a wrong endianness. Are you sure this happens? Las time I used the tool it worked for me without any such hacks.

Cheers Detlev
