Why? You've asked the very same questions 4 days ago on the PPCBoot
mailing list, and I replied to you and the list.

The Makefile in that old version of PPCBoot used a shell construct
which was only available in bash version 2.x, while RH 6.0 and 6.1
use an older version of bash. The Makefile has been fixed since, and
works in RH-6.0 and 6.1, too.

It seems you are missing the symbolic link "crc32.c" in the "tools"
directory, which points to the C source fine in the "ppc" directory:
-> ls -l tools/crc32.c
lrwxrwxrwx 1 wd users 14 Nov 16 09:58 tools/crc32.c -> ../ppc/crc32.c

Well, yes, PPCBoot 0.4.x is AWFULLY old; you'd be better off with a
more current version.
