Hi Wolfgang, I applied the sequent commands:
root@fcarrio-VirtualBox:/home/fcarrio/work/linux1/linux-2.6-xlnx# source /opt/eldk-5.1/powerpc-4xx-softfloat/environment-setup-ppc405-linux root@fcarrio-VirtualBox:/home/fcarrio/work/linux1/linux-2.6-xlnx# sudo cp /home/fcarrio/Downloads/ramdisk.image.gz arch/powerpc/boot/ If I don't specify the ARCH I obtain the next error: root@fcarrio-VirtualBox:/home/fcarrio/work/linux1/linux-2.6-xlnx# make 44x/virtex5_defconfig HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/conf.o SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/lex.zconf.c SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.hash.c HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/conf *** *** Can't find default configuration "arch/x86/configs/44x/virtex5_defconfig"! *** make[1]: *** [44x/virtex5_defconfig] Error 1 make: *** [44x/virtex5_defconfig] Error 2 So I specify it and I obtain: root@fcarrio-VirtualBox:/home/fcarrio/work/linux1/linux-2.6-xlnx# make ARCH=powerpc 44x/virtex5_defconfig # # configuration written to .config # And when I use the male command it crashes but only for 3.x kernels: root@fcarrio-VirtualBox:/home/fcarrio/work/linux1/linux-2.6-xlnx# make -s -j8 ARCH=powerpc simpleImage.initrd.virtex440-ml507 *** 3.0 kernels no longer build correctly with old versions of binutils. *** Please upgrade your binutils to 2.12.1 or newer make: *** [checkbin] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make: *** wait: No child processes. Stop. But, if I repeat the same command for a 2.6.40 kernel it results this: root@fcarrio-VirtualBox:/home/fcarrio/Downloads/linux-2.6-xlnx# make ARCH=powerpc simpleImage.initrd.virtex440-ml507 make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/generated/utsrelease.h CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CHK include/generated/compile.h CALL arch/powerpc/kernel/systbl_chk.sh DTC arch/powerpc/boot/virtex440-ml507.dtb DTC: dts->dtb on file "arch/powerpc/boot/dts/virtex440-ml507.dts" WRAP arch/powerpc/boot/simpleImage.initrd.virtex440-ml507 rm arch/powerpc/boot/virtex440-ml507.dtb And the result ELF file works properly on the ML507. Any idea?

The only difference I can see is that I'm running ona 64 bit machine, while you said yours was a 32 bit one - but I don;t think this makes a difference. Can you please try the very same commands as me, and if it still fails, send the _complete_ build log (or post it somewhere - pastebin or similar) ?
