Hi all, I've installed ELDK-3.1 and compiled my u-boot-1.1.1 for PowerPC - 8540, setting CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_82xx- . and compiled it for e-500.
I didnt see the serial output until I changed the cpu/mpc85xx/config.mk .
I added -mabi=no-spe, (as its recommened by Motorola for 8540/8560) in PLATFORM_RELFLAGS and -mno-string for PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS.
Now I could see the serial output and it hangs where the code uses 'sprintf' . This happens only with ELDK-3.1 but also with a toolchain built with gcc-3.3.2 & binutils -2.14.
I dont think its a board problem , as I eliminated the sprintf , the problem is solved at that point and then it hangs at another point where 'sprintf' is used.
I did step through BDI2000 and it crashes at that place.
Do I need to change the compiler flags ..or am I going wrong somewhere.
Any help would be appreciated as it would save a lot of my time .
Thanks Junita
