[U-Boot-Users] Pb compiling u-boot

[Dupas.External at infineon.com]

I'm trying to port linux on an arm versatile board, currently I'm trying
to create a loadable image of a recent u-boot.
I've downloaded the latest release of u-boot on the site (I use the
latest gcc provided by arm) and launched the compilation but an error
occurred:
I join the exact logs in attached file. <<log_u-boot_failure.doc>> 
It seems like the makefile is not valid (The start.o is not compiled...)

Here is a final extract:

DCONFIG_ARM -D__ARM__ -march=armv4t -I.. -Bstatic -T
/home/dupas/linux/sources_u-boot/u-boot-1.1.2/board/versatile/u-boot.lds
-Ttext 0x01000000   hello_world.c   -o hello_world

Can anyone help me please?
Greetings

Dear Thomas,

Ummm... I disagree.

This  attachment  is  unreadable.  Never  post  prorpietary  document
formats, especially when it's just a waste of bandwith like here: you
could have copy & pasted the text directly.

Attachment ignored.

It works fine for everybody else.

It would have helped if you had at least given the complete command.

This is why I think you did not use a recent version of  U-Boot.  You
should use top-of-tree in CVS instead.

Maybe. But this requires you  to  provide  enough  information  in  a
readable format (plain text only).

Best regards,

It's already ported and available in the mainline kernel, you don't
need write any code.
