Stop. You need to type, make at91sam9263ek_config make Also it's a good idea to have the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE Set to point to your tool chain, as in CROSS_COMPILE=\opt\mytoolchaintool\arm-elf- where the directory \opt\mytoolchaintool\ Contains your tools, such as arm-elf-gcc etc etc. > Can anybody help me in how to obtain a .bin file for my > processor that i can load in NANDFlash and use this U-boot. Can't help there, don't know if it's possible. I do know that you can boot out of NOR (parallel) and Atmel Dataflash (Serial). I would suggest building the standard u-boot and learn how it works and then go from there. Mr Foo ---
