you can see the method we use in Gentoo here: http://sources.gentoo.org/dev-embedded/u-boot-tools/ but i'd agree that i wish it were easier to just build the helper utilities. and if they werent so tightly intertwined with the rest of the u-boot code ... atm you cant build mkimage on a non-Linux system due to the libfdt stuff. -mike _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list [email protected] http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
