Building a ppc476 enabled GCC cross compiler and tool chain

Hello,

I am trying to build a cross GCC compiler for PPC476.
I applied all the relevant patches. Cross compiler build was successful.
When i try to compile the source code using the cross compiler i am getting the below error message. I think this is something related to linker.
Please see if anyone tried this and come across the similar problem. please suggest me if you have any solutions for this issue.


Code:

cow_shim_funcs_startup_shutdown.o cow_shim_utils.o ../../dm/cfg/cfgi.a ../../dm/pl2/libsas21xxpl.a ../../raid/pfk/libpfk.a
/home/Raghu/gcc/cross-compiler/ppc/tools/lib/gcc/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/4.3.1/../../../../powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/libgcc_s.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [app.out] Error 1

You need binutils compiled with support for that target also.

gnashley,

Thanks for your response.

binutils also compiled on the same OS and for the target platform as well.
Can you please describe the steps to do so.
I can re-check on the steps as well.

Thanks,
Raghu

I am facing the same problem. Can you please outline the steps to build or any patches that I might be missing?
