Then your cross toolchain is misconfigured / inadequate for this job.

Don;t do this!!!

Make sure to use a toolchain that supports soft-float.

Hi, all,

I am trying to use u-boot on my ixp425 based board. But it seems not 
working properly.

I got the u-boot-1.0.0. And make clean, make ixdp425_config , and make.  
The 1st first time there is a "Soft FP" issue. After I changed 
cpu/ixp/config.mk as following

" PLATFORM_RELFLAGS += -mhard-float   #Change -msoft-float to -mhard-float"

The compile was OK and I got u-boot.bin. But after I burn into flash, I 
can see nothing from serial port.  I am sure my serial port works fine 
and burn into flash correctly (because I have another pre-compiled 
u-boot.bin onhand, that one can work). What could be the problem in the 
configuration or something else?

Regards & Thanks
