I am porting sc520_cdp and sc520_spunk to my sc520 based board. I had several issues relating to differences between versions of gcc and ld. I fixed them and then got stuck for a while with this ld error: ld: section .data [00000000387d4de4 -> 00000000387d5a76] overlaps section .rodata.str1.1 [00000000387d4de4 -> 00000000387d9aca] ld: section .realmode [00000000387d5a77 -> 00000000387d5bdc] overlaps section .rodata.str1.1 [00000000387d4de4 -> 00000000387d9aca] ld: section .bios [00000000387d5bdd -> 00000000387d611a] overlaps section .rodata.str1.1 [00000000387d4de4 -> 00000000387d9aca] make: *** [u-boot] Error 1 I added the command line argument --no-check-sections to LDFLAGS in config.mk and this problem went away (perhaps). Now I have a problem with objcopy, objcopy never ends and uses massive amounts of memory. If I ctrl-c, and check the output files I see: rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 594727 Sep 29 13:12 u-boot I am using ld version "GNU ld version 2.14.90.0.8 20040114" and gcc version "gcc (GCC) 3.3.4 20040623" If anyone can help, it would be appreciated. regards, Aras Vaichas
