Dear "M SANDEEP-TVF386",

My U-boot version is 1.1.4, but I was not able to build tools/env for 1.1.4, so I am using fw_setenv and fw_printenv binaries build from 1.3.4.

Please update your code. U-Boot 1.1.4 is more than 3 years old, which is an eternity in terms of U-Boot development.

Im getting strange errors while building 1.1.4 . As im using linux kernel 2.6.22.18 (enclosing build errors and Makefile)

That is to be expected. You must not attempt to combine software packages from different eras. U-Boot 1.1.4 will work fine with a 2.4 kernel, but for a 2.6 kernel you will want to use a more current version of U-Boot.

For 1.3.4 fw_printenv and fw_setenv im not able to set env variables as I said in prev mail.

Obviously you modified the U-Boot Makefile, but in an incompatible and incorrect way. You must not include arbitrary Linux kernel header files into U-Boot.

This cannot work.

Please use recent code, and your problem will just go away.

Best regards,
