Thanks. This fixes overlapping problems with bss as seen on Ocotea with ELDK 4.2. But unfortunately I still have other overlapping problems for example on Katmai with ELDK 4.2: [EMAIL PROTECTED] u-boot (master)]$ ./MAKEALL katmai Configuring for katmai board... 44x_spd_ddr2.c: In function 'initdram': 44x_spd_ddr2.c:392: warning: 'selected_cas' may be used uninitialized in this function ppc_4xx-ld: section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff377] overlaps section .data.rel.local [ffffeba8 -> fffff3f7] ppc_4xx-ld: u-boot: section .bootpg lma 0xfffff000 overlaps previous sections ppc_4xx-ld: u-boot: section .data.rel.ro lma 0xfffff3f8 overlaps previous sections ppc_4xx-ld: u-boot: section .u_boot_cmd lma 0xfffff408 overlaps previous sections make: *** [u-boot] Error 1 These error are not seen with ELDK 4.1 by the way. Any ideas what might be causing this and/or how to solve it? Thanks.
