[U-Boot-Users] sequoia link error

[Daniel Glaser]

Hello,

I'm new to u-boot and have some problem to compile it for the amcc 
sequoia board. Here is the error that shows up:

I use gcc-4.1.2, binutils 2.17, glibc-2.5 and kernel-headers-2.6.22 
(with gentoo patchset)

Any ideas? Would be very greatful for some help

This is a known problem. The  current  linker  sript  logic  silently
assumes  that  address  space will silently wrap around at the 32 bit
boundary. Not so when you use 64 bit tools. I don't think I have seen
a patch for this yet.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
