RE: [U-Boot-Users] I can not get u-boot working on my ixp425 board.

Hi,
Thanks, Wolfgang. During my compiling, I got the following link error: arm-linux-ld: ERROR: /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/arm-linux/3.2.1/be/libgcc.a(_udivsi3 .o) uses hardware FP, whereas u-boot uses software FP
I am new in this field. Could anybody tell me how to fix that? Or where can I get a arm cross-compiler which support software FP. I once tried to search from google. I got some info but not helpful enough.
Regards

you can grab a toolchain (2.95.3) that works for ARM as big or little endian (just use the -mbig-endian if necessary) from our internal project page.

i use this for building u-boot.
