because MAKEALL is a pita to use. it has no automatic CROSS_COMPILE support, and the current logic only allows one-CROSS_COMPILE-setting-per-run. so you have to run MAKEALL by hand once per arch. the documentation you quote only shows running MAKEALL for powerpc (since that's the default), so even the docs are a bit unclear. ideally, MAKEALL should be intelligent and automatically find an appropriate toolchain if one isn't setup in the env. much like the buildall script i posted recently. -mike _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
