[Buildroot] arm-linux-ld: BFD 2.16.1 assertion fail

[Tamamontu M]

Hi Guys,

This is my post to this mailing list. Let me introduce myself, i have a cirrus logic EP9307 based board, with arm-linux-gcc 3.4 compiler. I am new to linux arm environment.  

I am trying to compile fat16 file system (originally based on lpc2148 arm-elf-gcc). After porting it to EP9307, this source code uses std libraries, hence in order to use std libraries I added -L/usr/local/arm/3.4/lib -lc  to LDFLAGS in make file.

when i try to compile i get an unknown error.

I have also attached the make file along with this email. It will be a life save if some one can please tell me what this error is, how to fix it.

Thanks
Tama

How is this related to Buildroot ?

You should also probably upgrade your toolchain, gcc 3.4 is now very
old.
