It's propably painful to work your way through crosstools with such an old toolchain. I would have a look if one of the ELDK's from http://www.denx.de can be used for your board - at least for a good start. If you run into problems with older linux-2.4 kernel version with the newer ELDK's, you can also go back to some older version? > Any help, pointers, example config files for crosstools, etc. would be > really appreciated! You are always welcome at their mailing list.
