U-Boot : 'make' problem

Hi Max,

make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/altera/kits/nios2/examples/uboot/u-boot-1.1.2/tools'

This looks like the sources directly from sourceforge.net ... this tree assumes you

have an appropriately configured native gcc and shell environment -- which

doesn't come with the nios2 toolchain 8-P The easiest thing to do is get the source

tree from http://www.pysent.com/download (http://www.pysent.com/download) -- this tree has certain "nips & tucks"

made to build cleanly with the default nios2 toolchain (under cygwin) -- and it's

more up-to-date than the sourceforge tree (WRT Nios-II, the sourceforge tree

has been lagging by several months).

Otherwise, you'll either need to start editing the Makefiles (and some other files),

or build the nios2 toolchain in a standard unix environment (not cygwin). If you're

determined to edit Makefiles, the first thing you'll want to do is disable building

the "tools" directory by removing it from the SUBDIRS make variable -- you

won't need any of the targets from tools to download an srec.

Regards,
