Hi,
I took the advice and tried fresh u-boot. I pulled latest u-boot-ixp from GIT and modified the include/configs/ixdp425.h file so that it would match my current one on those parts that has something to do with the hardware. That's only file I modified.
Then I gave commands:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=armeb-unknown-linux-gnu- ixpd425_config
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=armeb-unknown-linux-gnu-
The latter command stopped to error:
make -C cpu/ixp/npe/
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/teemu/tmp/u-boot/u-boot-ixp/cpu/ixp/npe'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `IxNpeMicrocode.c', needed by `.depend'. Stop.
I checked and that file is missing so I'm guessing here comes the part where I need the Intel library? I tried to search for instructions what to do, but I couldn't find any and I vaguely remember someone telling that there isn't at least for ixp. This is first time I'm trying to get the U-boot to work from the scratch so (detailed) instructions would help a lot.
