Hi Gnanasekar,
The tool chain depends on what processor you are using. whether PowerPC or ARM. For thse toolchains you have to download GGC, GLIBC and cross compile them. You can also find pre compiled GCC and Lib but I would suggest that you try compiling your own tool chain. This shall give you a feel of how to build using GCC. how to use GNU tools etc.
Regarding how to build Uboot. it is very simple. you have read the readme file first and then follow.
if you have any problems I would be glad to help you out if I can :-)
Regards Amit

Please visit this website and read everything. http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/Manual
It explains how to get a pre-compiled toolchain (ELDK), and how to install and configure U-boot and Linux.
