Just like with the kernel, this requires major code cleanup in the kernel (sources I 'inherited' when starting :( ). After cleaning the kernel sources and patching the 3.1 kernel, I want to cleanup ppcboot and move to u-boot. I intend to do this in a 2-step process. 1. compile a clean patch from ppcboot-2.0.0 to ppcboot-2.0.0-custom 2. port the patch to u-boot I have the following problem: 1. ppcboot-2.0.0 compiles cleanly on the 3.1 env. for a board (a README config). 2. when compiling the ppcboot-2.0.0-custom sources (with support for our system), the compilation succeeds, but ppc_82xx-objcopy --gap-fill=0xff -O srec ppcboot ppcboot.srec gets stuck. Idem for a system where I only brought in a couple of changes from the old sources. Any ideas as to what code might cause this problem? ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
