Installing ELDK 2.1.0 and I get no error message but nothing is installed except the initial "bin, usr and a very bare var" in the install directory (/opt/eldk). NOTE that this is for ARM processors.
This is known problem. See the FAQ at http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/ELDKInstallationAborts
Note that the description is for PowerPC; for ARM you will need to tweak the package lists.
So, has anyone done an install of ELDK 2.1.0 on a Fedora host? I will need to install ELDK for PPC targets as well and the problem MAY be the same there, but for now the ARM version is very broken (in the rpm tool specifically).
Blame it on the glibc guys who cannot provide a library that is either backward compatible or capable of building a real statically linked image.
For PowerPC you can use ELDK Release 3.0 which should show up on the FTP server in a day or two from now.
