CC ed the u-boot mailinglist, because its more a u-boot topic. I used to
compile the u-boot
for a sh7750R based board (Sorry, patches for u-boot not posted yet ...)
with the
compiler from

http://www.sh-linux.org

There is also a fine readme.txt for installation.

or use crosstools for making a compiler for your needs. See it at:

http://www.kegel.com/crosstool/

And then, hack the code ;-)
If your Flash supports CFI it should work with the CFI driver in u-boot.
Look in the u-boot readme how to start/modify the u-boot code.

bye
Heiko

On a somewhat related note, what is the status of the SH7203 patches? I
have some SH7206 and MX-G bits that build on top of them, yet I don't see
any of the SH7203 stuff in the git tree?

I don't touch SH7206 and MX-G.
Do you know someone is doing the work such as MX-G? 

About SH7203 , I will put code to U-Boot 1.3.5 queue.

 Nobuhiro
