Seems like nand_spl borrows the Makefile under arch/powerpc/ which won't work as the normal powerpc boards needs .fixups and has a test for that. In addition the test is a bit flawed, it checks the object files for .fixups instead of checking the toolchain. Obviously this will have to be fixed before one can remove -mrelocatable just for nand_spl. On the other hand, removing -mrelocatable won't be needed when you use my gcc patches which will be in gcc 4.6 _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
