Host computer: AMD ( I think K8 amd cpu which is i686) target: custom board (XC2VP4 fpga that contains ppc405, and build around the ppc405 are peripherals UARTLITE, SPI controller, SDRAM controller, PLB (processor locus bus). I have used serial SPI flash from ST(M25P32). NO ETHERNET GNU toolchain I build ==> binutils (2.10.1) gcc (2.95.3), glibc (2.2.1) includes 2.2.1 linuxthread. I have follow instructions from "Building Embedded Linux Systems" book to build the kernel image. After I follow up to chapter to 5, the follow instructions that I did are $make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux- clean dep $make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux- zImage $make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux- moudles during step "installing the kernel" on page 167, I look under /arch/ppc/boot/zImage, and could not find the zImage. <== don't know why, I had seen the other files like system.map, vmlinux .config. other questions I want to ask is seen I have use serial spi flash memory (ST M25P32) ==> how do I build the "Root file system" on this flash, how do I do with the MTD, and bootloader. I am new to this stuff, so I don't what to do. thanks.
