'make distclean' and 'make mrproper' should delete ALL intermediate build files and basically return the local git repository to the same state that it would be in if you did a fresh git-clone regardless of what config options git set. So if one does: make board_x-config make all cp u-boot.bin <somewhere> make board_y-config make all cp u-boot.bin <somewhere else> make mrproper nothing should be left over from the build of 'board_x', even if it is a completely different arch that 'board_y' The list of files to delete should be in the board_x and board_y config.mk files. Similiarly for arches and SoCs Regards, Graeme _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
