Hi Ricardo, Changing my tool chain to the ELDK 4.2 ppc-linux-x86 does build the default ml507_flash project. However, because my hardware design does not map the FLASH chip to 0xFE000000 but to 0x86000000 the build failed with the following error.
/******************************/ cpu/ppc4xx/start.o: In function `rsttlb': /usr/local/groundprobe/src/Bootloader/u-boot/cpu/ppc4xx/start.S:493: relocation truncated to fit: R_PPC_REL24 against symbol `_start' defined in .text section in cpu/ppc4xx/start.o /*****************************/ I think this issue maybe to do with the 24bit branch address limit with the PPC440x5 core. Here the _start_440 function calls a "b _start" and in this case the _start is mapped to flash in address 0x8600xxxx. Meaning we now need to branch from 0xFFFFFxxx to 0x8600xxxx. I think this is why the linker failed at the last stage. Does anyone have any idea with this issue?

Try with another toochain, I am using one produced by OpenEmbedded, but you will get the same results with the ELDK Best regards On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 07:59, Benny Chen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi there, > > I am trying to build a U-Boot image for the ML507 board running from > FLASH and got the "Not enough room for program headers" error. > > > > The main difference for my setup is the toolchain.
