In the meantime, I get crosstool to compile my toolchain.
With that toolchain I get a xilinx kernel from their git-repo compiling and
booting up.

ptxdist compiles my userland, but I have some more probs:

I use the xmd from EDK to download and run the kernel.
I try to setup a rootfs via NFS but the kernel didn't get an address, maybe
there is a problem with the network-setup.
It's not clear to me how put the kernel-image and the userland to one
elf-binary that is downloadable by xmd, because to work around the above
network issue to get things started.

Best Regards,

Ingo
